Why Hosting a Gala?

I do it because I love creating spaces where makers connect, share their passion, and build community. Yes, it will take seven months to prepare, but knowing it brings people together is the greatest reward.

Over time, my Sew&Bond™ event is having incredible demand, selling out months in advance and bringing together amazing people who love sewing as much as I do.

And when I hosted a special celebration event at Janome UK, that sold out too - a wonderful reminder of just how strong and engaged this community truly is.

Because of that success, and after hearing so many requests for something bigger and more special right here in Manchester, I decided to create the Sewn at Midnight Gala.

The Sewn at Midnight Gala is all about celebrating you - the makers behind every stitch.

It’s an evening to come together, share stories, spark creativity, and connect with fellow dressmakers and sewists who truly get the quiet magic of a late-night stitch.
