Our Community
The Bernina Somerset West Sew Along is open to everyone, wherever you live. Every month sewists from across South Africa come together to create the same project, share their creativity and inspire one another. Share your finished project using our Sew Along hashtag and you'll automatically be entered into our monthly lucky draw. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced maker, we'd love you to sew along with us.

Sew Along Project
In the first week of every month we release a brand new Sew Along project. You'll receive the project instructions, suggested materials, recommended accessories and the option to purchase a convenient Project Pack, where applicable. Follow along at your own pace and make each project uniquely yours. Click below to start this month's project!
Sit & Sew Thursdays
If you're in the Somerset West area, you're invited to join us every Thursday for our informal Sit & Sew session. Bring your current Sew Along project—or anything else you're working on—for a relaxed morning of sewing, conversation and friendly advice from our team. There's no class, no pressure and no booking required—just a welcoming space to enjoy sewing together.
Thursdays: 9.30 - 13:00
