From crochet to macrame, and punch needling to fibre art, our experienced local teachers have you covered with a range of fun and creative workshops. We’ve got classes for all abilities and ages, so if you’re looking for a fun activity to do or something to help you unwind after a long day – let us be your answer! Our classes are held in friendly venues around Manchester and we’ll provide all the necessary materials for you to get busy creating your own textiles masterpiece.
If you’d love to learn to punch needle, want to know how to sew up a hole or add a new button, or if you’re simply keen to learn a new skill and create something lovely, our beginner-friendly stitching courses offer a simple and fun route to getting started. No prior experience is necessary to learn at our workshops - our dedicated teachers are ready to show you the ropes! Whether you want to learn how to use a sewing machine, how to get started in dressmaking, or if you’re curious about punch needling, you’ll find that our textile courses offer a friendly and chilled environment to learn alongside like-minded others.
Ideal if you’re looking for creative activities in Manchester or unique experience gifts for crafty friends and family, our stitching workshops are an accessible intro to this varied art form, whatever your age, ability or interests. If you’re keen to be more sustainable at home, learning some basic sewing skills can be a lifeline - learning how to fix favourite garments, upcycle much-loved homewares and darn imperfections out of well-used items can be a great way to preserve precious resources and save money. Sewing is also a wonderfully mindful hobby – get stuck in and feel the benefits of the creative escapism that these soothing crafts can bring to your day-to-day.

Learn the basics of fabric art and unleash your creativity with our friendly textile courses in Manchester. Our experienced local teachers will make sure you get the most out of your session, whether you’re a complete beginner or already have some experience of textiles.
Choose from a host of crafty possibilities such as macrame, knitting, crochet, punch needling and fibre art classes. You can expect to be welcomed into a cosy workshop setting and taken through demonstrations and tools, while having the chance to ask questions and share tips with other like-minded makers. Then it’s time to get hands-on with your chosen activity! You’ll have plenty of time to build up your skills at your own pace while enjoying the relaxed atmosphere in our friendly venues around the city.
By the end of your class, you’ll be able to take home something handmade – whether it is a crocheted shawl, a hand sewn cushion cover or an adorable felted animal.

Discover the world of sewing without breaking the bank with our affordable textile and sewing classes in Manchester! We believe that learning a new skill should be super accessible, which is why we offer options to suit various budgets, with introductory workshops starting from just £30. Whether you're a thrifty beginner or looking for a more comprehensive sewing experience, you'll find a class that works for you.
Each workshop is designed to make these crafts accessible and fun. Whether you have some stitching experience already, or whether it’s entirely new to you, our workshops will give you the basic knowledge and skill you need to feel confident in your chosen craft. Our workshops are led by expert local tutors and are usually held in their workshops, studios or creative spaces. Whatever workshop you choose, you’ll be welcomed by your friendly teacher and introduced to your activity. You’ll watch demonstrations and learn about the tools and materials you’ll be using, before getting started on a project of your own with plenty of support from your tutor and plenty of time to practice and perfect your work.
Our creative crafting Manchester experiences are suitable for beginners and welcome solo crafters, groups and families. Whether you’re looking for some quiet down-time to yourself or the chance to meet like-minded others in the city, or whether you’re searching for some wholesome hen party activities, fun birthday party ideas, a group team building activity for your colleagues, or a fun group experience for your friends and family, our textile courses are here for you! Try a two-hour workshop or a full course spanning a number of weeks.
Learn to sew a button, have a go at needle felting, make some DIY Christmas decorations or learn how to use a sewing machine – there's something for every interest and every season! Explore dressmaking and design, find out how to make your own fascinator, prick your worries away with some fun fibre art or hand stitch a brooch for a special gift for a loved one - there are sew many options with our Manchester sewing workshops!
