Yes! Each project is designed to appeal to both beginners and experienced stitchers. Templates and step by step photographic and written instructions make it easy for newcomers, while advanced stitch tutorials and customization options keep things exciting for seasoned crafters.

​

3. Do I need to buy materials, or are they included?
Materials are not included, allowing you to choose your own colour palettes and make use of supplies you already have. Each project is designed with sustainability in mind, so you’re encouraged to source felt, threads, beads, and sequins second-hand or from your stash.

​

4. How long does each project take to complete?

If you join after the 17th, your subscription will start the following month.

If you cancel during your subscription period, you’ll retain access to all projects and benefits until the end of that period. Subscriptions will automatically renew unless cancelled by you before the next cycle begins. This is easy to do when you login to the site and access “My Subscriptions”.

​

10. Are children or families able to join?
The designs are intended for adults, but they’re great for crafting with children aged 12 and older. The finished projects contain small parts, so they’re not suitable as toys for young children.

​

11. How does the Virtual Sewyeah Clubhouse work?
The Clubhouse is a special members only area on the Sewyeah.co.uk website where members can share photos of their projects, ask questions, and chat with other crafters. It’s a supportive and friendly community, perfect for inspiration and connection.

​

12. How can I access the Clubhouse? Is it through Facebook, Discord, or another platform?
The Virtual Sewyeah Clubhouse is hosted in a private section on the Sewyeah.co.uk website. You will be provided with the details before the official launch date of the 17th of January. It’s easy to access and designed to be a safe, welcoming space for members to share, learn, and connect.

​

13. What if I miss a live video session?
Don’t worry! All live sessions are recorded and made available for you to watch at your convenience. Whether you join live or catch up later, you’ll always have access to the tutorials and community discussions.

​

14. Can I purchase individual projects without subscribing?
Yes, individual projects will be available in the Sewyeah shop for £8 each. However, subscribing gives you exclusive perks like extra motifs, discounts, and access to the Virtual Clubhouse, making it the best value!

​

15. Will the projects work with other materials besides 100% wool felt?
While the designs are optimized for 100% wool felt, you can experiment with other felt mixes and materials. I love 100% wool felt as it is strong and a joy to sew. You can unpick and restitch sections without it going bobbly or stretching out of shape. Other felts may be thinner and less fun to work with. I am always looking for good vegan alternatives to wool felt, so if you know of any do let me know! 

​

16. What if I don’t have time to complete a project every month?
That’s okay! The projects are designed to be bite-sized and manageable, but there’s no pressure to keep up. You can save the downloads and complete them whenever it fits your schedule. They’ll always be yours to revisit.

​

17. Do I need a sewing machine?
No sewing machine is required! All projects are designed to be hand-stitched, making them perfect for relaxing, portable crafting sessions. BUT if you are adept with a sewing machine you can alway experiment with larger versions of the templates. Let me know how you get on!

​

18. How DO I Print MY TEMPLATES?All the templates are designed to be printed out at 100% on both UK A4 and US letter.
