Experienced Sewers Needed!

Are you handy with a sewing machine? Do you enjoy turning small design ideas into beautiful, sellable items?

Our weaving studio, based at Minstead Lodge, produces stunning handwoven cloth, created by the talented individuals we support on a variety of looms. Their skills have grown so much that we’re now struggling to keep up with transforming their work into finished products to sell! 

Could you help? If you have a few hours a week to offer, either sewing in our studio or from home, we’d love to hear from you.

Please register your interest for more details.

Skills

We are seeking skilled and enthusiastic sewers with confident hand and sewing machine skills to join our weaving team. 

We would welcome help either in our creative studio at Minstead Lodge (SO43 7FT) on a Tuesday, Thursday or Friday; or alternatively, items could be collected and worked on at home to offer more flexibility.
