Sewing Circle

The Place to Become a Skilled Fabric Crafter

Five sewing circle workshops are held at Tin Soldiers every week:
Tuesday and Wednesday morning from 9am to 12
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings 7 to 10pm.

Work sessions include a short lecture on a specific aspect of fabric crafting (you'd be surprised how much you can learn when you add up all those 5 minutes!). Thereafter everyone works on their own bears and dolls while chatting and drinking tea. There's always a class project on the go involving an unusual pattern or technique. (Class projects are not compulsory).
These work sessions are ideal for persons who like to set their own pace - work in class only, or work at home and finish the complicated bits in class. All levels of skill are catered for.

Benefits of regularly attending sewing circle:

• Get help with the tricky bits whenever you need it. You will feel your confidence and your ability growing with an artist present to guide you to professional teddy bear and doll making.
• Get to hear about and try out new products and techniques.
  
• Our library and sample artwork are available to inspire you.
  
• Get to make challenging creations from unpublished artist patterns.
  
• A great opportunity for socializing and being inspired by like-minded creative people.

Six sewing circle sessions cost R 260. Once you have paid for sessions they never expire, simply tick one off every time you attend.
We also cater for one-time visitors. Enquire about rates for single lessons.
