“For anyone looking to learn the basics of sewing, Arzelle's a great mentor if you want to learn at your own pace, understand why some tools and techniques are the way they are - she clarifies and gives context to each new concept or tool you learn - then 1:1 classes with her is your best bet. I'm booking time with Arzelle again just to have her expertise on hand. It's so valuable to the start of my sewing journey!”

What 6 sessions could look like
Every sewist is unique, and so is their learning pace. In your private sewing coaching sessions, we’ll tailor each lesson to your specific needs and goals. While some sewists may complete a garment or project within six sessions, others may prefer to take their time, focusing on refining techniques and building confidence.
Here’s a general idea of how sessions are structured:
🧵Tailored sewing journey plan
A 30-minute onboarding session to understand your goals, lifestyle, and sewing aspirations.
Suggestion on required tools and equipment.
A customised ‘roadmap’ outlining your journey, tackle patterns, or refine technical skills.
🧵Guided fabric and pattern selection
A 60-minute guided shopping experience to help you select the perfect fabric, notions, and patterns for your project (all purchases are at your own cost).
I will take you to some of my favourite fabric stores across Singapore.
🧵Six 120-Minute coaching sessions
Start: Session one, begin with fabric layout, cutting, and preparation to set a strong foundation.
Middle Sessions: Focus on construction techniques and assembling your garment or project. The number of sessions spent on this depends on the complexity of the garment and your pace.
Final Session: Complete your project with professional finishes, such as adding buttons, hemming, or decorative stitching.
✨ Need More Time?
If your project requires additional support or you’d like to explore more techniques, lessons can be added to your package for $200 per session.

Who is it for?
✨ Those Who Value Quality Over Fast Fashion: If you appreciate the craftsmanship, creativity, and personal touch that go into handmade garments, private sewing coaching is for you.
✨ Sewists Who Want Personalised Guidance: Perfect for anyone who feels lost in group settings or overwhelmed by online tutorials. With 1-1 coaching, every session is tailored to your needs and goals.
✨ Learners Willing to Invest Time and Effort: Sewing is a journey, and those who understand that skills take time to develop will find immense value in these sessions.
✨ Creatives Who Crave Unique, Customised Pieces: If you dream of creating garments that fit perfectly and reflect your style, this is the opportunity to bring those ideas to life.
Who Is It Not For?
🚫 Those Looking for Instant Results: Sewing is a craft that requires time, patience, and practice—it’s not a one-session skill.
🚫 Sewists Who Prefer a Structured Curriculum: If you thrive on following a set course or program, rather than flexible, tailored lessons, private coaching may not suit your needs.
🚫 People Focused Solely on Cost: If your mindset is “why does it cost so much to make just a shirt?”, private coaching may not be the right fit. Handmade garments are about more than the finished product—they’re a reflection of creativity, quality, and personal growth, plus the skill you gain.
Note:
Remember, sewing—like any skill—takes time and practice. Just as you wouldn’t expect to play like Beethoven after only a few piano lessons, sewing requires dedication and patience to master. The beauty of private coaching is that it’s entirely at your own pace, ensuring you feel confident every step of the way.
