Quirky Classes
"Learn the Quirky way - Bespoke Classes, Unforgettable Experiences!"
A quirky class is not your typical group class. Our class sizes are kept small to optimise your time with our tutors and each student is valued and encouraged to explore their creativity in a supportive and engaging learning environment. Our customers are at the heart of everything we do so our classes embody a strong sense of community, and a commitment to holistic development.

How much does it cost?

What does my class fee cover?
Class fees are generally for tuition only, and you will be given a list of materials required for the class unless otherwise stated. We sell everything you need for your sewing or quilting classes with starter packs available. Please ask us for details if you are unsure what your class fee includes.
How many classes do I need to attend?
Our classes are designed as standalone classes for flexibility – they are not a set course – therefore you can come to as many or as few as you want, even just a one off class. You may not finish your project in class and feel that you need to come back to another class to complete it, or you may feel confident enough to finish by yourself.
Is there a more personalised learning experience?
Yes! One on one coaching is available and is a great way to focus on a specific project or skill. It's your project at your pace!
What if I don't have a sewing machine?
Sewing machines are available for use during coaching classes only – conditions apply. Please have a chat with us.
What do I bring to class?
You will need to bring your sewing machine and basic sewing supplies (scissors, pins, thread etc) and any material requirements for your project.
I’m a beginner, what class is best for me?
For absolute beginners we recommend our sewing coach, where you can benefit from one on one personalised tuition from experienced, professional and friendly teachers! For beginner quilters we recommend our beginners quilting classes where you can complete a simple project that will give you foundational quilting skills and boost your confidence.
Are the classes the same every month?
No, some classes will be the same every month; however we do have some one off classes and class of the month. We advertise our classes on facebook and via our mailing list, join our mailing list to stay up to date or like us on facebook.
