Three days of sewing with support, advice and tips from Julia Hincks.
Book your place for three days of uninterrupted sewing.
I can’t offer you a fancy retreat with a buffet lunch and accommodation, but I can provide you with 3 days of sewing in beautiful surroundings and wonderful company. I will also make as much tea and coffee as you want to drink with plenty of biscuits.
You can work on whatever dressmaking project you wish (so long as you bring it with you) and you’ll have a 5ft table to work on.
Additional space will be available for cutting out or drafting patterns.
Please Note: This isn’t for complete beginners – you need to know how to use your sewing machine and have a basic idea of how to approach your chosen project.
*Book for 1 Day or 2 days ONLY:Â
If you’d like to book for one day, or two days only, please email me at julia@houseofmisssew.com and I can let you know if there is any availability and how to make your payment.
Work through your individual project with tips from Julia, experienced teacher and best selling author of ‘The Overlocker Technique Manual’ and ‘The Coverstitch Technique Manual.’
Sewing demonstrations, samples and handouts will be available to support your learning.
Made and Making, Garden Studio, South Downs Nurseries, Brighton Rd, Hassocks BN6 9LY
There is free parking on site or the nearest train station is Hassocks station.
Made & Making’s studio was designed purely with sewing and craft in mind, and has all the equipment and space you need.
It’s based within the glorious South Downs Heritage Centre, which also houses the Museum of Gardening, The Sussex Food Hall and The CUBE Art Gallery, and is part of an extensive garden centre.
There is a coffee shop and restaurant at the garden centre but there is often a long wait for food as the restaurant will be busy at the weekend. Â You may wish to pre-book your food before the lunchtime rush.
Getting There:
By car
You can’t miss the South Downs Nurseries on the A273 (Brighton Road), and there’s ample free parking.
If you’re bringing your own equipment, grab a trolley from the front of the garden centre, unload your car and then push the trolley through the shop and towards the Heritage Centre to the back left of the centre. Walk through the lawnmower museum, craft shop, coffee shop and out the door at the back right towards the Garden Studio.
By bus
There’s a bus stop right outside served by these routes:
Metrobus 270 – East Grinstead to Brighton
The Sussex Bus, 33Â Hurstpierpoint to Haywards Heath
