Are you ready for the return of the Great British Sewing Bee? Read on to see how you can keep the sewing bee excitement going!

Join our Sewing Bee Sew-Along Challenge!

Are you ready for a challenge? Inspired by the return of The Great British Sewing Bee, we're starting our own sew-along challenge for you to participate in, which we hope will push you and your skills in the same way the contestants do!

Each week we'll announce a theme for the challenge here on the blog, and you'll have one week to submit an entry, which could win you a £25 voucher to spend on sewing goodies if you're chosen as our Garment of the Week!

Just upload an image of your finished garment from that week's challenge to Instagram or Facebook using the hashtag #mysewingchallenge and don't forget to tag us too so we can see your entry!

This challenge is all about finding a fun way to expand your skills, no matter your skill level, and we'll be picking winners based on originality, technical skill and sometimes just having a good old go at something new - so don't be put off if you're a beginner! We've designed it for all abilities so you can push yourself wherever you're at in your sewing journey. We won't necessarily be following the challenges from the show, but we are picking ones that we hope will be able to help you expand your skills and try something new each week! 

It will hopefully be a bit of fun, and we'll be joining in too each week, as well as finding a ton of inspiration for you - so make sure you're signed up to our emails to get it all in your inbox! Keep an eye out for the first challenge, which will be announced on Tuesday 12th February...
