Sewing Classes
Melann’s Fabric and Sewing Centre’s staff are passionate about sewing and love sharing this passion with customers. We specialise in workshops for dressmaking, machine embroidery, quilting and overlocking. We publish our Workshop Planners regularly.
In our timetable you will find classes suitable for the absolute beginner right through to the confident sewer. Sewing programs for young sewers during school holidays are also offered. Our classes run at various times of the day and we issue workshop planners well in advance to accommodate busy schedules.
