I love this place! Been to a sewcial and a Christmas dressmaking class. Both were hosted by the lovely Rosey and they were brilliant. I was made to feel very welcome and Rosey provided help when needed. I’ll definitely be back. More...

I have never touched a sewing machine before and today I made a tote bag and bunting! It was, hands down, the best thing I’ve ever done! I loved it. The class was run perfectly! So highly recommend this. I just want to do more and more now! Thank you More...

I attended the beginners class as a reintroduction into sewing. Ashleigh was just super lovely, patient & fun & I was amazed at everything I made in our 2 days. My daughter who is 8 has also completed a kids class which. I’m booked back in for the over Lockerbie class in a couple of weeks & my wee one the fashion academy during the summer holidays. I would wholeheartedly recommend sew confident! More...

I’m a born-again sewer and needed to re-establish my confidence - this is absolutely the best place to do it! I’ve attended 4 of the classes and 2 of the Sewcials - oh by the way I live 160 miles away - it would need to be special to make that journey for a class! ! The tutors are all so talented, patient and knowledgeable- not to mention so welcoming. The other participants are also super like-minded folk and the Facebook group page provides access to everyone’s tips and hints even when you’re not at a class. Great atmosphere- and I love Jenny’s entrepreneurship! More...

Absolutely loved my time at Sew Confident! I attended the 6 week Beginners Sewing Class and had a fantastic time. Ashleigh was a brilliant tutor, assisting me and the class in learning how to set up the sewing machines and produce some amazing items including cushions and make up bags - the bunting was my favourite!
The classroom is so much fun to be in, and I met some beautiful people and had plenty tea and cakes! (Also, loved the dogs from the other workshops in the building but that's just a personal highlight!)
Thank you so much to Sew Confident, it really was the highlight of my week attending the classes!
I'm really sad the course has ended and cannot wait to book another!

I have attended 2 Sew Confident classes so far, both of which have been great! Most recently I did the beginners sewing class which was just fab! Before the class I couldn't even thread the sewing machine and winding a bobbin was just a song I sing with my daughter (Btw if you are a fan of the song don't be misled there is no pull, pull, pull of the bobbin!) That aside I was actually amazed that by the end of the course I was able to make a skirt for my daughter, which I would never have believed beforehand! Ashleigh the tutor was fantastic and really made us all feel so relaxed. Nothing was too much and no question too stupid. She gave us lots of great tips and advice. Thank you so much Sew Confident, I can't wait to come to another class!! More...

I did the 2 day beginners course and I absolutely loved it! Having not used a sewing machine since high school, I was surprised by the things that I was able to make in such a short period of time. All the basics were covered, there’s a lot of help available if you’re stuck and the environment is just really fun and relaxed. The course gave me the confidence to buy my own sewing machine so that I could start doing my own projects at home.

The best place to learn how to sew. Have competed a patterns for beginners class (dress making) and found both Jenny & Colette to be friendly & knowledgeable tutors. Have also attended the hand embroidery class which was so good! Lisa was also a very friendly and patient tutor. In addition to both classes, I have attended many a sewical which are great way to meet people and get expert advice on your sewing projects. More importantly, I can confirm that the tea and cake are delightful at all classes/sewical! Highly recommend. More...

I attended the Hoodie Class yesterday and at the end of 4-hrs came home with a hoodie my 7-year old loves. This was my first visit to Sew Confident, Collette was so helpful before I attended and Tracey was a great Tutor on the day. Everyone in class went home with a completed ready-to-wear hoodie to be proud of. It's re-energised me to dust off my overlocker and to get sewing some new spring/summer tops. I'll definitely be back for more sewing classes. More...

I attended the beginner's class a few years ago and took away a lot of learnings. I didn't see Dundee classes for a while so was super excited when I saw the Beginner's quilting class. The communications leading up the class were top notch with any questions answered in a prompt manner and a comprehensive "shopping list". Sandra over the two days was amazing. Lots of friendly chat, biscuits and most importantly I feel confident in sewing my own quilts at home now. Overall so impressed I already booked myself on the next class. If you want to learn to sew or boost your skills in a friendly learning environment with like-minded people, then sew confident is for you. More...

Was looking for a place for my Son to get his new Sewing machine and had asked his Fashion and textiles teacher for recommended models, so decided rather than just buy from a large chain find somewhere that was an official dealer and wasn't all the way down in England. Came across Sew Confident when looking and then noticed they offered 1on1 tuition for new machines. This was evening in the run-up to Christmas and all my questions got answered that evening. Booked the session, got through to Glasgow and jenny guided my Son through ALL of the workings of his new machine even going into trouble shooting and handy little tips. Son`s a bit quiet when meeting new people but got on fine right from word go so DEFINITELY recommend.. (p.s. Offered Tea or Coffee as well !!!!! always a bonus :D) More...

I have been at a couple of Jenny's sewcial nights plus I've done the 'walkaway' and 'kimono' classes. The atmosphere is warm, relaxed, funny but also Jenny has all the time in the world to make sure you understand both the patterns and the instructions. She never makes you feel inadequate for not understanding and wants to make sure that you get a positive experience and product to take home from her classes.
