“This masterclass series is great! I had worried I was too much of a beginner but the techniques shared are so clearly taught and helpfully described I'm gaining confidence in areas I didn't think I'd even try yet.“ @Llifo
Zoom webinar links will be sent by email shortly before each Masterclass
NOTE: This series of Masterclasses is in no way affiliated to the BBC, The Great British Sewing Bee, or Love Productions. The intention is purely to help home stitchers.
The plan!
The BBC has just announced the 2026 series of the The Great British Sewing Bee with the first episode on Tuesday 14th July, and 9 weekly programmes to follow. This has prompted us to develop a new review format in collaboration with Stuart Race at The Woolpatch.
Soon after each broadcast both Stuart and I will present a short review on All Gathered Up in which I will identify some of the techniques used by the participants that could do with a little more explanation. On the following Monday I will explore these in a live online class on Zoom Webinar from 20:00 - 21:00 (UK). We will maintain this cycle until the winner is announced in the final programme on the 15th September.
MASTERCLASS DATES: July 20th, 27th, August 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th, 31st, September 7th, 14th.
TIME: 20:00-21:00 (UK)
