Experience SG Heritage: Make Your Own Samfu or Kebaya

Just completed my session yesterday and I highly recommend the session to anyone - beginners or experienced sewists alike. Fabric is cut out for you and serged beforehand, very neat finishing. The top is really easy to sew up. Peiyun is really friendly and accommodating. Her place is very homely, sewing area not cluttered (unlike mine!) hence the entire process was very pleasant and therapeutic. Thank you Peiyun! :)

I recently attended a 4-hr Samfu sewing class with pre-cut materials, and it turned out to be such a wonderful experience. The session was not only interesting but also surprisingly therapeutic—it felt great to slow down, focus, and create something with my own hands. I went together with three of my friends who also enjoy sewing, and we all had an amazing time. The pre-cut materials made the process smooth and beginner-friendly, so we could fully enjoy the learning without feeling overwhelmed. The environment was cosy and the host is welcoming, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. It was the perfect setting to relax, chat, and immerse ourselves in the craft. Overall, it was a delightful and fulfilling day. This class is highly recommended for anyone looking for a creative and calming activity.

I went with a friend and both of us really enjoyed Peiyun's workshop. She gives easy and clear instructions. Learnt afew tips from her: from hand sewing using slip stiches, using a special marker with disappearing ink to mark the lines for sewing, using a small pressing iron and even where to get the A0 paper patterns printed. My blouse ended up a tad bit larger cos I over estimated myself but it was a very comfortable fit. Can't wait to make another blouse with the paper patterns.

Enjoyed my experience. I haven't used a sewing machine in several decades, but Peiyun was very patient in giving tips on how to use them. She had to step in to sew some portions as well. She does a lot of the hard work like cutting the pattern and serging before hand, so I only had to learn about the pattern and how the various parts line up. And I got a great looking blouse out of it! Don't be afraid to consult with her about the size of the blouse before hand or else you will end up with something too large as the pattern is for a buffet-ready top. I followed the size chart closely and the fit is still pretty generous.

Had a great time! I went together with a friend and my mother who did not have any experience using the sewing machine. The pattern and machine is set up for you before the class. Peiyun was extremely kind and patient to explain how to use the machine and also help correct our pieces to make sure they all turn out perfectly. She was happy to provide other fabric options if the selection initially shared is not to your liking, just make sure to reach out before the class and let her know what you might be looking for. We had a lot of fun conversations with her while working and felt like we learned a lot about what goes into making a garment feel and look nice. There is a dog to those who may be concerned, but he is not at all intrusive to the class and mostly just hangs out around. He is extremely friendly and sweet. I would reccommend this class as a fun group activity for both friends and family! Prior experience is always good to have but not necessary.

love this Pearl Samfu. My forth Samfu with Yuzu and Pear. Super friendly teacher ❤️
