Classes Coming Up

 

Ray Stitch classes and workshops are taught in-person at our Islington premises. The school room is located within the fabulous community sewing hub that is our shop, where you will be taught in a relaxing and friendly learning environment whilst surrounded and inspired by an extensive range of fabric, haberdashery and sewing supplies.

Our teachers have many years of experience and are experts in their field. As a beginner we can guide you right through all the stages of becoming a confident machine sewer.  If you are returning to sewing we offer intermediate and advanced classes to progress your learning as well as creative hand stitching workshops which are open to all levels.

Open Sewing sessions are a very popular option for intermediate sewers who need help with specific elements, bring anything from an untouched pattern to a half made garment to vintage alterations and benefit from the expert guidance of one of our qualified teachers.

Use the levels to help you decide which class is best for you and see our full schedule of classes below.
