Brother at our side

Fabrications welcomes Brother sewing machines into their new East London showroom!
The fleet of sewing machines arrived a couple of weeks ago and is probably one of the most exciting deliveries I've received in recent years, in fact I think I could say ever! Caroline from the Shoreditch Sisters helped me unpack the boxes and set up the machines during our recent monthly craft club and described it being like Christmas, when you're the first to open and use an item. Even I'm in the grip of enjoying using something brand new, that hasn't been tinkered with that runs like a dream, purrs in fact!!

Thanks to Brother's support, we can now offer a whole range of sewing machine based classes, which will be starting in April. We're planning 'provisional driving' sewing classes, more 'Refresh your wardrobe' classes. Rosie Martin will be running a series of DIY Couture classes for all abilities and we will also be joined by Laura Lees who will be bringing her creative machine embroidery 'The Mighty Stitch' workshop to town!
