As this year comes to a close, I can’t help but feel incredibly lucky and truly blessed. I have the most wonderful friends and family around me, and a business that I absolutely love. Through my sewing journey, I’ve met some amazing adults, children, and parents who have not only supported me but genuinely enriched my life in ways I never expected. You’ve all become part of my world, and I’m so grateful for that.

I work hard — anyone who knows me knows that — and I work for my holidays, so I’m heading into the New Year with a huge smile and lots of excitement. I’ve got some incredible adventures to look forward to: cruises to Japan, Turkey and the Greek Islands, a very special trip to visit family in Maryland and Florida in August with 2 of our grandsons, and another cruise booked for January 27th where I’ll be taking my two granddaughters to the Caribbean. So many memories waiting to be made!

This year has also carried sadness. We’ve lost much-loved family members and dear friends, and their absence has left a huge hole. Although they’re no longer with us, they were deeply loved and will never be forgotten. As long as we speak their names and share their stories, their memories live on.

So as we step into a new year, I wish everyone a very happy New Year, filled with good health, happiness, and everything your heart hopes for. I know how lucky I am — my biggest wishes are already here: my husband, my family, my sewing community, and my friends.

Here’s to new beginnings, cherished memories, and holding the people we love a little closer 💛✨

🧵 NEW January Dressmaking Course – Learn to Read Patterns & Make Your Own Clothes! 🧵

I’m excited to be running a six-week Dressmaking Course starting in January, perfect for anyone who wants to move into garment making with confidence.

✨ What you’ll learn
• How to read and understand commercial sewing patterns
• What all those symbols, markings and instructions actually mean
• Cutting out accurately and preparing fabric
• Sewing pyjama trousers and a top, including:
• Waistbands
• Collars
• Buttonholes
• Garment construction techniques you can use again and again

This course is designed to give you the skills and confidence to tackle future dressmaking projects on your own.

📅 Class options
• Tuesday evening: 7.00 – 9.30pm
• Thursday afternoon: 12.00 – 2.30pm

⏳ Duration
• 6 weeks

💷 Cost
• Course fee: £100
• Class pattern: £15 (we’ll all use the same pyjama pattern for learning)
• Fabric: please bring your own or purchase fabric from me if you prefer

✂️ What we’re making
For this run we’ll be making pyjamas, as they’re brilliant for learning both tops and trousers while keeping things relaxed and wearable.

📍 Held in my friendly, supportive sewing space – small groups, plenty of guidance, and no rushing.

Nanny Kim’s sewing bees Changes for January 2026

Over the last year, I’ve had quite a few situations where people have cancelled at the last minute, not turned up, or left spaces unfilled. Which has resulted in costing me money for materials not used.

Rather than increasing prices — which I really don’t want to do — I need a clearer way to secure places , know how many are attending a session and keep things fair for everyone.
This new system should help protect the spaces you book without raising costs for the whole group.

💛 New Booking System (Starting January)

From January onwards, all sewing classes at Nanny Kim’s Sewing Bee will need to be booked and paid in a four or more -week block.

🌼 Flexible Within Your booked Weeks
You can choose any four or more sessions you like — they don’t have to be consecutive.
Once your sessions are selected and confirmed, payment is required for the full block.

🌼 Cancellations & Moving Sessions
If you need to rearrange a booked session for another date , that’s absolutely fine with 3 days’ notice or more.
If notice is under 3 days, the session becomes non-refundable, except in extreme circumstances, where Nanny Kim will decide if reschedule is possible.

This updated system helps keep classes running smoothly, protects your space, and avoids the need for price increases — which I know everyone appreciates.

Thank you so much for your understanding and support. I can’t wait to sew with you all in the new year! 🐝💛
