Coffee, Cake, ‘n’ Craft –Sew a Bag in New Romney, Kent
Description
As part of the warm and welcoming Coffee, Cake, ‘n’ Craft series at Teach Me Courses, this hands-on sewing workshop offers you the chance to design and make your own stylish shoulder bag in just three relaxing hours. With a choice of high-quality fabrics and simple design options, you’ll be able to tailor your bag to suit your personal style – whether you prefer classic neutral tones or something a little brighter and bolder. Led by an experienced tutor, this beginner-friendly session gently guides you through each step of the process, from cutting and preparing your fabric to getting confident with the sewing machine and assembling your finished piece. It’s a fantastic way to build practical skills in a relaxed, well-supported environment – no prior sewing experience is needed. There’s plenty of time to work at your own pace, with lots of conversation, creativity, and encouragement along the way. Whether you’re trying something completely new or returning to sewing after a break, you’ll leave with a finished bag that’s both beautiful and useful – and a real sense of achievement. It’s a lovely way to wind down at the end of the week, meet like-minded people, and spend a few hours immersed in making, chatting, and of course, enjoying delicious coffee and cake.
