Maker By Nature Sewing School
We love teaching and seeing our sewing creatives ideas come to life! Please check out our courses under the Teaching tab above. If there are any particular classes you would like please do not hesitate to contact us.
Your Garment Begins With Your Design and Fabric Choice
We sell 100% cotton Japanese fabrics.
Have our team of artisans sew for you or make your own garments.
If you are a maker we can post the selected items you require for you to handcraft your own garments.
Sewing Patterns
Our patterns are size inclusive from 6 – 26 with easy to follow instructions. We will be adding to our range of patterns.
Bespoke sustainable fashion is costly, so we would love to help you make your own.
By request we can arrange a workshop where we will make the garment together. A minimum of four people is required.
Our aim is to revive the craft of sewing and contribute to the care of our planet.
