about tailoring for breakfast

why tailoring for breakfast?

it’s a random name, i know, but the idea is simple. i want each workshop experience to feel as enjoyable and approachable as meeting friends for breakfast. workshops are relaxed, welcoming, and designed to help you start your sewing journey without feeling overwhelmed.

sewing should be fun, relaxing, and accessible to everyone, no matter your experience level. perhaps you've never used a sewing machine before or simply need a refresher, my workshops are designed to guide you step by step with patience, encouragement, and plenty of good vibes.

about me

hi, i'm samm, the creator of tailoring for breakfast.

i've been sewing since school and went on to study pattern cutting at london college of fashion. i've interned with tailoring companies, learning the trade first hand. i've worked on everything from celebrity alterations, designing and making lingerie, to garment tech, where i currently work full-time.

i created tailoring for breakfast because i remember how daunting it felt when i first started sewing. there was so much information out there, and it was difficult to know where to begin or what tools and materials i actually needed, which meant a lot of money was wasted along the way.

at tailoring for breakfast, i want to make that journey easier. alongside in-person workshops, i've created beginner friendly ebooks, learning resources, and share first hand tips to help you continue learning at your own pace with more confidence and less overwhelm.

i also offer one to one lessons, celebration workshops, and private events. i've taught students as young as six years old, and i truly believe there is no such thing as a silly question.

if you have any questions, feel free to reach out!

i can't wait to welcome you to one of my workshops.

samm :)
