BIG NEWS!!!
We are moving but only into Unit 2, next door.
We will be able to offer a better experience for all of our customers and students.
The shop and workroom all under one roof.
We will still be offering the same fabulous products including our amazing collection of Brother Sewing Machines
Classes and workshops will continue and I will soon be confirming more dates for some exciting new projects.
We will be able to offer more space for drop sewing sessions around our workshops.
You will be able to rent a space to enjoy uninterrupted sewing with either your own machine or borrow one of ours.
Use our full height cutting tables. No longer relying on an empty kitchen table, this never happens. Save the pain of having to use the floor. I know its a lot lower than it used to be. π€£π€£π
We will also be on hand to offer advice and guidance, but only if you want it. Otherwise youll be left to enjoy the inspiring sewing space.
In order to finish the move, we will sadly be closed tomorrow, Saturday 30th May.
We will be reopening on Wednesday 3rd June at 11am to show you around the new space, plus.......
π§΅Ex display machines on offer ready to take away today
π§΅New special offers from Brother full price machines
π§΅A glass of bubbles
We are really looking forward to seeing you all and welcoming you all to the new and improved Karen Robb Sewing Collective.
Many thanks for your patience while we get ready.

The last 2 weekends were all about bras in the Karen Robb - Sewing Collective studio .
Four lovely ladies all created beautiful bras that fit perfectly.
Gorgeous fabrics, stunning colours whilst learning new techniques and ways to stitch delicate material.
Charlotte is a genius and always achieves great things with her students. We are so lucky to have her in the studio.
I can't wait to see what the students make next and look forward to welcome Charlotte back again soon.
