Had a fantastic time on the hand embroidery course and can't wait to go back and learn to use a sewing machine in January! Highly recommend

Lovely class with Dawn. Friendly, step by step instructions, in written form too and the project was finished in class so we could take it home.

We recently had a party for our 11 year old’s birthday at Dawn’s Sew Confident studio. The girls had a couple of hours to make their own cushions. Dawn was brilliant and guided them through how to make the cushion in stages. Two of the girls had never sewn before and they did so well and all of them really enjoyed it and kept saying how much fun it was. Dawn was so patient and really put the girls at ease and made it such a fun thing to do for a party. I would thoroughly recommend Dawn and her classes/parties to anyone. Thank you

I really enjoyed the beginners' class. It has given me the confidence to pick up sewing again. Dawn was lovely, helpful, and so patient. I really recommend it to an absolute beginner or like me someone who needed a refresher and more confidence.

Just completed a five week beginners sewing class at Chorley and had the best time. I am not new to sewing but decided my machine needed a dust off and since it is five decades since I had any tuition it wouldn't hurt to revisit the basics. The evening class was small, the other ladies delightful and Dawn lead us with patience, humour and wonderful advice through the different projects. So I learnt a lot, thoroughly enjoyed myself and will be back to try my hand at something new. Thank you.

I have now done 2 classes here in the last few weeks. The first was for crochet granny squares and today was sewing a shirred dress.The workshop space is perfectly sized for group classes and the lighting is great so you don't have to strain to see what your doing.Both tutors I have seen have been excellent. Dawn today was very good with her explanations and guidance. I now have a beautiful dress that I can wear in public and be proud to say I made this.I would wholeheartedly recommend Sew Confident Chorley to anyone who is interested in sewing or crochet whether a beginner or more experienced as the range of classes on offer are suitable for most people and at affordable rates.

The “Sewing Room” it’s a hidden gem. If you’re after a unique setting to run a meeting/training session then speak to Dawn at Sew Confident. I’ve just held a training session in the “Sewing Room” and it got great feedback from all the participants, as it’s light and airy with a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. It provides a quiet setting that is easily accessible from Chorley town centre. There is also a kitchen for refreshments or to create a breakout area for lunch.

I have just complete my third course (beginners sewing, quilting and Memory bear) and enjoyed everyone of them. The tutors are very knowledgeable and fully of tips that you just don’t get from watching Youtube videos. Nothing is too much trouble for them and I have learnt so much, I can’t recommend them highly enough.

I did a Sewing social class here recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. Dawn helped me to adjust a jumpsuit I'd bought, hem some jeans and alter a top for my daughter. The space is relaxed and informal and Dawn was extremely friendly and nothing was too much trouble! I have booked another class already and plan on booking more. What a special little place I have found, so pleased...
