SewBrum 2024

Sew Brum is back!

This annual, free-to-attend meet-up for sewing enthusiasts is open to everyone.

The day begins at 10:00am at The Exchange in Birmingham City Centre, before heading to us here at Guthrie & Ghani in Moseley Village for the afternoon. Join us for part of the day or the whole event—it's up to you!

Since 2014, SewBrum has raised £9,970 for nine charities through raffles. In 2020, we went online, drawing 678 participants and raising £2,763 for charity. We hope to raise as much as we can again this year!
