10-week course | 20th July - 21st September

Join us at Highbury House in Term 3 for an exciting opportunity to discover the art of sewing. This course is specifically designed for absolute beginners, providing a supportive and inclusive environment for you to learn and grow.

Throughout the 10-week program, each class will focus on teaching fundamental sewing skills. Starting from the basics, you will gradually develop your expertise and confidence. Our aim is to empower you to create your own beautiful items, which you can proudly take home after each session.

No need to worry about bringing your own sewing machine, as we will provide them for your convenience. However, if you have your own machine and prefer to use it, kindly inform us in advance. Additionally, you have the option to purchase your own materials, ensuring that your creations reflect your personal style and taste.

During this course, you will learn a wide range of essential techniques, including machine operation, pattern cutting, trim and elastic application, zipper installation, buttonhole creation, button and dome attachment, and even the use of polyester stuffing. These valuable skills will not only enable you to embark on various sewing projects but also enhance your abilities to handle sewing tasks at home.

Don't miss this incredible opportunity to acquire a versatile set of sewing skills in a friendly and supportive environment. Embark on a creative journey that will unlock your potential as a skilled sewist.

We are getting a lot of good time outdoors between showers, and this is the best time to get any woody weeds or prunings arranged compactly so they start rotting as quickly as possible, reducing the mass of anything that might need to be disposed of before summer heat and drought.

We routinely place woody material on wet ground, avoid compacting the clay and making surfaces less slippery.

See more about this on our website at northshorewilds.co.nz...

The photo below shows one such path made from dried honeysuckle, covered by cut woody stems of Cape honey flower weed, then wood chips added the following year to even out the surface.

Much as we loved this little path across one of our restoration sites,, we knew it would become hidden as the native trees around it developed ... and that's exactly what's happened! But the path was a convenient place to put the cut woody weeds, suppressed kikuyu and other weeds, protected the restoration area from trampling, and was well-drained all year round.

I bought these, worn them once for around 30 minutes and as I had left it so late to trial them at home, it was too late to return to store.
The arch support is brilliant on one foot for me, but due to a spinal alignment issue, didn't work so well on the other foot.

Engineered mesh upper for a fit that feels uniquely yours
Brilliant cushioning for long distance comfort
A fresh foam midsole cushioning is precision engineered to deliver an ultra-cushioned, lightweight ride

Medial post helps control pronation
Proven stability that keeps you on your feet
