Description

You will also learn how to accurately pattern cut, measure and piece your work.  Insert a zip, and quilt, whilst working at your own pace, to make a quilted fabric box a zip cushion and a beautiful tote/shopping bag. This class has a maximum of 6 pupils at any one time ensuring you receive an extremely high level of tuition and support.

If you are unable to make one of the three sessions for whatever reason we can arrange another time for you to catch up with the group.

You will receive access to online video tutorials and written instructions for all 3 projects (RRP £40) so that you can replicate them at home after the class. These are also available to purchase and study at home if you are unable to make an in-person class.  Find out more HERE.

This course costs £135 and includes all materials and instruction. If you’d like to lighten the load then we have a payment plan that may help you save up for the classes you wish to book (this must be arranged so the class is paid in full a minimum of 4 weeks before the start date).

    Claire, the owner of BTHQ is an fabulous tutor. I naively thought the first lesson we would start by practicing sewing on scraps of material, how wrong I was! We were sent straight into making a quilted box which was amazing. The second week a tote bag and the third a zipped cushion cover. So many different techniques covered in 3 very enjoyable lessons. I have since purchased a sewing machine from Claire, which I am using to make all sorts of projects with confidence. This course is a definite ‘must do’ for any beginner.

Its payday and we've added heaps of new stock to o Its payday and we've added heaps of new stock to our shop. Colourful bright quilting cottons. Beautifully soft viscose wovens and jersey and some Frida Kahlo canvas too!!

Shipping is flat rate to the UK or you can click and collect from the store. Alternatively, pop down and stroke it in person. BTHQ is open 10 till 4 today.
Today we are delighted to be introducing a new cha Today we are delighted to be introducing a new challenge to you that is free to join in with.  We hope it will encourage you to try something new.

The 'Sew out of your comfort zone challenge' is designed to encourage you to create something that you wouldn't normally try, or to venture into a new sewing territory.

Maybe there is a pattern you think just wont suit you, but you've seen lots of other people making it and are tempted to give it a try.  Maybe there is a new technique you've always wanted to have a go at but have been to scared to try.  You might have been sewing for years but have never tried a particular fabric or method before.

Sandra has always avoided the Tilly & The Buttons Indigo dress as it has soooo much gathering and she thought it would not be all that flattering.  But she's seen me wearing my many versions and has now decided to give it a go.

I have made lots of jumpsuits but have never worked with Scuba before or a Deer and Doe pattern so I'm giving it a go for the first time.

Join us during Februrary and pick something that pushes you out of your comfort zone.  Be sure to post your progress on social media using the hashtag #sewoutofmycomfortzone and we can all hold your hand in the process.

Hi it’s Sandra. I’ve finished my first project Hi it’s Sandra. I’ve finished my first project on my #makenine2023 list. It’s the Atlas Bag by Swoon patterns. It looks so pretty but I don’t like it! I used a vinyl that I realised I didn’t have enough of, so lined the straps in cotton, but don’t like that they are then facing upwards with the lining.
The straps are also ridiculously  long. The bag is much too wide for my shoulders so isn’t comfortable to wear. Never mind, good reason to try another pattern!
