6 hours of learning with Sarah

Knowledge in sewing

Your beautiful sewing creation

The workshop in detail

  • 6h
  • 15 years min.
  • 3 to 6 participants
  • Up to 6 people for a privatization
  • Welcome to Sarah's sewing workshop!

    The session starts with Sarah guiding you through the basics of operating a sewing machine, from threading the needle to adjusting the stitch settings.

    Once you are comfortable with the machine, it's time to decide what you want to make. You can either bring your own fabric or choose from Sarah's selection. Together you will discuss your project options, which for this timeframe could include making a tote bag or skirt. However, Sarah is open to other ideas depending on your preferences and skill level.

    Once you have chosen your project, you will dive right in. Sarah will guide you through each step, demonstrating essential techniques such as inserting zips, sewing buttonholes and adjusting thread tension as required.

    Throughout the workshop, Sarah fosters a supportive environment where participants can learn from each other and share ideas. By the end of the session you will, if everything goes well, have a finished garment. If not, Sarah will help you out.Ā 

    Join Sarah for an experience that combines hands-on learning with creative expression!

    Wecandoo - Meet Sarah

    Meet Sarah

    Sewer

    Meet Sarah, one half of Genaaid, a company she founded with her colleague Maaike in 2016. Together, they offer sewing classes where they share their expertise in designing, sewing and finishing garments. Sarah and Maaike first met while studying fashion design at the College of Arts.

    In addition to her work with Genaaid, Sarah runs her own slow fashion label called Sarah van der Wilk. Her designs are influenced by traditional Japanese art and focus on subtle and refined pieces. Sarah is dedicated to creating garments with care and attention to detail.

    Teaching sewing classes at Genaaid allows her to pass on her knowledge and skills to others who share her passion for textiles and design. She always encourages a sense of community and creativity during her workshops.

    Join Sarah and explore the world of sewing and design!
