Meet Claire! Claire started her Sewing Adventure in June 2021 and look how far she has come! From Beginner to Bagmaker!
"I never learnt how to sew my whole life and thought I would pick up sewing as a new hobby during the pandemic, so I joined the Beginners Course at Sewing Adventures.
At the first I was very scared and worried that I didn't have any skills, but Leesa and everyone else in the class were so friendly and the projects we did were so fun that I ended up really enjoying the class.
After the Beginners Class, I decided that I really liked making bags so I signed up for two other bag making classes. The classes were jam-packed with lots of skills needed for bag making and provided me confidence to make new bags with patterns I've never used before.
Now I make bags as gifts to friends and family and everyone loves them 
.
I really enjoyed classes at Sewing Adventures and I'm looking forward learning new skills like making clothes. I found sewing relaxing and takes your mind off stressful things in life. It's almost like meditation for me. The classes are well designed and the instructors are amazing, there are also social aspect that you are introduced to different sewing communities where lots of lovely and supportive people help you with your questions and make recommendations.
Sewing is really not just a new skill but also a good hobby to have.

Claire has done our Beginner Basics Course, our Beginner Bagmaking Course and Bagmaking with Leather.

Congratulations Claire, you bags look amazing.
I too found a home in sewing adventures. It’s such an amazing place with talented teachers and students. I hadn’t sown since high school and had been searching for classes for sometime. I too start with beginners basic course. I loved it so much I enrolled in the basic wardrobe, then overlocker, duplicating a garment, design your own fabric, fit to flatter, zips and finishes and have just finished the new all coated up class. I am so addicted I have booked in for a few more. Not sure what I’m going to do when I run out of classes to do 😂
I have a few medical conditions which makes life a little hard then most, but doing these course not only have made me happier, but have really given me some fantastic skills. I feel more and more confident each class and I look forward to each class.
Thanks has to go to Leesa and her team for giving the community a real little gem.
