I had the absolute joy of taking one of Brian’s adult sewing classes this afternoon and have already signed up for my next class! I’m a gal in my late twenties looking to make my own clothes (but a total beginner when it comes to sewing), and I feel I couldn’t have found a more patient, friendly, knowledgeable teacher than Brian. I lugged a massive bag of sewing supplies with me but quickly learned that was unnecessary as Brian has everything you could ever need at the studio (fabric, machines, patterns, you name it). It’s clear that everyone (kids and adults alike) who enters that studio is immediately made to feel at home, and can throw their cares out the window and just have fun. I truly could not recommend the Newton Sewing Studio enough. From the reasonable class prices, to the easy online booking process, to the friendly staff- do yourself a favor and check it out!

My 6 year-old daughter went to her first class here yesterday, and promptly requested that we send her for two back-to-back sessions today (which we have booked)! The joy on her face (and the awesome pillow that she made all by herself) were well worth the per-class price (which includes materials). I swear, she has told us more about her one sewing class than about her entire school year combined. I love this place. And if you have questions, pick up the phone and call them -- Brian couldn't be nicer.

My 7-year-old daughter has spent several afternoons here making wonderful creatures. Her little brother was jealous, so I joined her yesterday and make something for him. I've been sewing since I was a kid, but nowadays, I never have the time to gather all the bits and pieces to make a pillowcase, much less a stuffed animal. What a great find this was, then. Everything I needed was right there. Brian and the instructors really helped me through the process of making my first stuffed animal. My daughter and I spent a lovely afternoon together, and her brother thinks my animal came from a store! Will be returning here to make my next baby gift.

I am so thrilled to have found the Newton Sewing Studio! My daughter Riley has learned so much from Brian and his team there, all while taking advantage of flexible studio options that fit our crazy schedule. Brian and the other instructors are patient and kind, yet really push the kids to figure out how to make their projects come together properly. My daughter is only 8 years old, but is now able to SAFELY and properly use a sewing machine. Also, the ability to purchase "hours" and come to open studio time is fantastic, as we live 35 minutes away and cannot commit to a weekly set schedule as is required by other sewing studios around my area. I highly recommend Newton Sewing Studio!!

Questions & Answers

Do you teach Tambour embroidery technique?.

Thanks for your inquiry! At this time we don't teach any hand embroidery classes and I can't think of anyone locally who does. Your best bet will probably be online classes or check the library catalog for a few books to get you started! Thanks! Brian

Do you offer machine embroidery classes? I have a project that I would like to complete, but I do not own an embroidery machine.

Hi Linda, We no longer offer machine embroidery classes. We used to do a lot but as the machines got older and less reliable we started to phase them out. Thanks! Brian

Its just for kids no adults?

The Studio is largely geared toward kids sewing but we have the tools and know-how to help aspiring students at every age! If you are looking for quilting or home dec help I would suggest looking elsewhere. Our specialty is apparel and beginner sewing classes.
