Your Personal Sewing Help, Sorted
We know what it’s like, your project’s half-finished, you’re stuck on a tricky bit, or you just can’t seem to get going. Maybe your Sewing Society kits are piling up and you’re not sure where to start, or maybe you have a question about how to use a function on your machine?
That’s exactly why we’ve created our brand new Virtual Sewing Studio Sessions—the first of their kind from g&g!
Think of it as having your own personal sewing tutor, ready to jump into your sewing space virtually and help take any sewing pains away.
If you need advice on fit, a demo of a tricky technique, or just a bit of encouragement to get going again, these 1:1 virtual sessions give you a full hour of dedicated support from our expert tutor. You’ll finish feeling clearer, more confident, and excited to sew again!
📅 Upcoming sessions (Sessions are 6pm and 7pm - 2nd Wednesday of the month):
Wednesday 11th June
Wednesday 9th July
Wednesday 13th August
Wednesday 10th September

Sewing has always been a huge part of Claire's life. As a child she was always making, crafting and fixing things. Her love of fabric and making drove her to study Textiles and Fashion Design at Leeds University. After graduating and gaining some invaluable experience in the fashion and textiles industry Claire realised her true passion was sharing her skills and knowledge of garment construction with others.
Claire has been teaching design as a qualified lecturer for well over a decade. She joined the g&g team shortly after the shop opened in 2013 as a workshop tutor. During her time with us she has taught countless workshops and has loved helping customers learn how to sew and create wearable garments that will become staples of their me-made wardrobe.
