G&G Stitch Academy - Easter Holiday Sewing Session - Easter bunny bags
Do you have a crafty child or teenager inspired by the Great British Sewing Bee?
Are they eager to learn how to use a sewing machine or improve their hand-sewing techniques but unsure where to start?
Looking for a fun, creative activity to keep them engaged during the Easter break?
In this three-hour sewing session, students will explore a variety of materials and sewing tools, including how to safely and confidently use a sewing machine. They'll apply their new skills by creating their very own gorgeous Easter bunny bag, to take home! Use them to store those yummy Easter goodies and treats or make them as gifts for friends and family.
They will choose from a selection of coordinating fabrics and trims to make their project.
The session is ideal for complete beginners and also offers additional challenges for those who are more familiar with sewing, including those who already attend the G&G Stitch Academy.
This class is suitable for children ages 7 and up and designed to be fun and accessible to all skill levels. If time allows, students may even be able to make more than one bag.

Lorna Hulme
Lorna is forever grateful to her Mum for teaching her to sew as an adult. She fell in love with everything sewing! So much so that she couldn’t bear to keep these skills to herself. Being driven by her passion for inspiring other people to sew, Lorna spent 7 years sharing this love of sewing through teaching others in her own sewing workshop business.
Lorna joined the Guthrie & Ghani team in January 2024 as the Workshops and events coordinator. She is responsible for organising the programme of events and sewing workshops and will be joining the team of sewing tutors too.
Lorna loves all aspects of sewing but her particular passion is dressmaking.
When she’s not sewing she enjoys running, cycling, running around after 2 teenagers and drinking hot chocolate!
