Real stories from real students who've transformed their sewing skills
Sarah's tuition gave me the confidence and motivation to tackle sewing techniques that I thought were beyond my skill level. Each step was carefully broken down into clear and manageable tasks and included guidance on fabric choices and pattern matching. I loved how as the project progressed and my confidence grew, she enthusiastically supported me in adding additional elements to the original plan. The result was a beautiful, one-of-a-kind bag that I'm so proud of, and would never have attempted without Sarah's tuition. If you're looking for a course that combines skill-building with creativity and a teacher who shares your excitement as you progress, then I highly recommend Sarah!

I absolutely loved this beginners online sewing course...As a complete beginner I found it to be the perfect introduction to sewing - clear, encouraging and really well-structured. Sarah's calm tone and clear diction made everything easy to follow and her guidance helped me feel confident and excited to keep sewing. Highly recommend.

I had such a great time at The Hemming Bird's in-person sewing courses! I brushed up on my rusty skills, learned new techniques and met some lovely people along the way. The online tutorials were a perfect refresher too - fun, clear, and easy to follow. The teaching was top-notch: knowledgeable, approachable, and super friendly. Highly recommend!

...what I'm trying to say is that Sarah is more than a teacher, she is very personable, warm and she wants you to succeed... She uper clear at explaining sewing techniques... I signed up with little-to-no sewing experience and came away with the confidence and skills to make the curtains that I want in my home and for others too.
