A day to stitch whatever you fancy: crazy critters, a bag, a cushion, an apron, fabric jewels, a simple skirt,  or perhaps you have another idea? This workshop is suitable for children (aged 8+) and young people – beginners and super stitchers alike.

These fun sessions are guided by each individual attendee's ideas and skill level. We will try to ensure that everyone enjoys creating something they can be proud of. 

Stitch Clubs are small groups of up to 6 children (from age 8) and young people. The group is usually mixed ability and ages to encourage individual achievement and to support each other to create their own ideas. 

We meet in our purpose-built Stitch Studio in Pinner, North-West London – a cosy making cave full of inspiration.

My girls both loved stitch club & what to go again!  They enjoyed the freedom to stitch what they wanted to,  in a lovely creative environment. Sam was really patient with them, helping them with their creations.

Both my children and I have attended day workshops and also weekly classes over the last years and we all have thoroughly enjoyed Sam's classes.  The time has simply flown past.  We look forward to joining again in the Autumn.

Absolutely thrilled to have found Stitch Club. Sam runs amazing workshops for children interested in sewing. No prior knowledge or skills needed and the children come out with fabulous creations every time. Highly highly recommend, my daughter wants to come as often as possible. Convenient location in central Pinner and lovely dedicated sewing studio.

Thank you Sam for a really lovely day.  You were so informative, patient and helpful as well as being a great teacher.  I love my cushion cover that I made and really look forward to learning new skills in the future.

Safina Choudhury

The tutor, the lesson was excellent. We went at a good pace, the explanation was very easy to follow, and the day was well structured. I learnt so much. In just a short period I feel I have the confidence and skills to invest in my own sewing machine. Many thanks for an enjoyable day, and I'm now the proud owner of this tote bag, which I made myself.

Kulvinder Kaur

The beginners class I attended was absolutely fantastic. I became friends with my sewing machine. Sam is a kind warm and helpful person and I was comfortable throughout my time there .. though I made quite a few mistakes. I would highly recommend Sam’s class and I’m looking forward to attending more classes with her.

Thoroughly enjoyed taking part in this workshop. Learnt a lot about the sewing machine, fabrics and threads.

Susan Kaye

Sam’s a great teacher - very accommodating and knowledgeable. Had a lovely day spent sewing and chatting to the other clients. Very relaxing environment. Would highly recommend! 

Jay  Makwana 

Has a great class with Sam in June making my first ever cushion cover. It was a lovely small class of 4 students. I used Sam’s sewing machine but she provided material, threads etc. Sam is a great teacher & guided us superbly step by step to make sure we learnt about machines, stitches, cutting/putting material together, zips, types of thread, colours, fabrics etc. I thoroughly enjoyed it, learnt a lot & will be signing up for the pyjama class soon as well as purchasing my own sewing machine. Totally recommend The Stitch Club for beginners & beyond beginners! Thanks Sam :-) 

For absolute beginners and those who want to brush up rusty skills. Apply your skills as you familiarise yourself with the sewing machine.

Learn simple stitches and how to use them to make something unique to you. This relaxing session is for beginners or those who want to free up their technique.

We will explore a selection of stitches including: running stitch, stem stitch, French and bullion knots and seeding stitch. If there is a particular line or fill that you need we will look at the different stitches. 
You can use these to create an image which can then be left in a frame or made into a small lavender shape.

There will be an opportunity to look at different fabrics and fibres you can use, with an emphasis on re-using and adapting scraps and other bits and bobs. 

You can work on your own design, an idea you have been mulling over or you can work from one of our images. You will learn how to plan and transfer your design onto your base fabric.

This workshop is part of Sam’s Harrow Open Studio. Her artwork will be around for you to use as inspiration and ideas. It will take place in the Stitch Club Studio in Central Pinner. This Aladdin’s cave is full of inspirational textile bits and bobs. It has been adapted to our new way of being with a lovely outdoor working space where you can relax and forget about the world outside.

You will leave with new ideas and the confidence to create your next embroidery independently.

What will be provided?
We have all the tools and fabrics you should need.
What should you bring ? 
Just yourself will do. If you have some ideas or an image or more that you find inspiring, bring them too. If there is a fabric or fibre that you want to work with or know more about bring that too.

Kirstie Allsopp called machine embroidery “the crack-cocaine of crafts”. This workshop will give you a taste of what she means – you might get hooked too (I am!).

An Australian artist living in London, I began running Stitch workshops & clubs in 2008. I love nothing better than making and sharing this feeling with others.

Christina’s background as a Norwegian fashion designer brings a wonderful authentic aesthetic to her work; her enthusiasm for making and sharing is infectious.
