Where Singapore sewists come together

Hosted by Arzelle from Sew on & Sew Forth, Sewing Circles - SEWcials are monthly get-togethers for sewists held at BERNINA SG, offering a relaxed and welcoming space for all sewsits to stitch, connect, and be inspired.

Sewing on your own can sometimes feel lonely - here, you’ll be surrounded by fellow sewists who understand the joy (and the frustrations!) of making. Bring along your own project, and enjoy the creative buzz in the room.

Sewing Circle - SEWcial is about carving out time for yourself, and sharing your passion with others. It’s all about experimenting, community, and joy.

🧵 All sewing levels welcome, even the curious. (If you have never operated a machine, do let us know)

“I highly recommend Arzelle. I’ve joined her Sew Social a few times and always love her guidance, tips, and tricks - especially as a beginner. She is very knowledgeable and patient. I’m always looking forward to doing more sewing sessions with her ☺️”

“…The ambience of the session was warm and welcoming. I loved seeing what others were working on and couldn’t stop admiring the stunning range of Bernina sewing, embroidery, quilting, and overlocking machines—all state of the art and available for use.

I’m genuinely looking forward to attending more sessions and can’t wait to begin my one-on-one drafting course with Arzelle.

I highly recommend these sessions to anyone with an interest in sewing, at any level. They’re an inspiring, encouraging space to learn, share, and grow.”
