Couture and cake
OK, we have stitch-n-bitch and other craftsy workshops in the UK but I’m still loving this French ‘couture cafe’ concept. ‘Sweat Shop’ in Paris has Singer sewing machines, vintage furniture and oh, cake! There are all manner of sewing and knitting classes every week…like, who wouldn’t want to make one of these?
Apparently there are plans to extend to London. Bonne idée!

Those little John Lewis sewing machines are brilliant!! They are so cheap – I can't decide whether to get this colour, a pastel pink one or pistachio!

Oh yes bonne idée indeed!

That looks such fun! I may even be inspired to get my sewing maching out of storage (and try to expunge from memory the horrors of school needlework lessons).

It's a great idea!

If I didn't already own a Janome I would get that Singer. Tresawesome.
