About this Event
Thinking of buying your first machine? Just purchased one, or need a refresher course then this class is for you. We will cover the basic functions of the machine including threading, tension and general maintenance. We will look at the stitches and what they are used for and practise controlling the machine to get a great finish.

I am passionate about sewing and crafting.
I have been involved with sewing and dressmaking for all of my working life and nothing gives me greater pleasure than passing on my knowledge to people who want to learn to sew. I enjoy sewing, dressmaking, all types of craft and especially machine embroidery.
I have been working at the Abakhan store in Shrewsbury since it opened its doors in 2018.
