Sound familiar?
Eight out of ten people who walk in started here. On the left, the thought. On the right, what we do about it.
Everything I did today was for someone else. I keep meaning to set aside time for myself, and it keeps ending up last.
Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, several time slots. Pick the one you can get out for. Nobody is looking for you during those hours.
I'd like to learn a craft, but I'm not paying a few hundred ringgit for a package. What if I can't do it? What if I can't finish the course?
No package, and no commitment to how long you'll keep going. Most sewing classes around here start at 12 months or dozens of sessions. This one doesn't.
I'm just not good with my hands. Other people's work looks lovely on my feed, but I know I'd never make anything like it, so I only ever hit like.
Unpick it and start again. Nobody minds — everyone at that table is holding a needle for the first time too.
Illustrated scenes, not photographs of actual classes.
Student work
All made, stitch by stitch, by our students in this studio.
Some of these are from advanced classes. A single RM 98 class makes something simpler that you take home the same day.
Their first piece
In a small shop in Bandar Mahkota Cheras we've taught mothers learning to sew, and office workers holding a needle for the first time.
From 0 knowledge to something within a year, I'm really thankful to Teacher Chyi so patiently to teach me step by step how to do the sewing.

I've always wanted to learn how to use a sewing machine… When I saw an ad for this sewing class on social media, I decided to give it a try — and I'm so glad I did!

Everyone calls her Teacher Chyi
Life'n Craft started from a simple idea — share the pleasure of making things by hand. Over the years, in a small shop in Bandar Mahkota Cheras, she has taught mothers learning to sew, office workers holding a needle for the first time, and plenty of people making the first thing they have ever made.
You don't need talent, and you don't need to know anything first. Sit down, and she'll be right there with you.

What RM 98 covers
Come empty-handed. This is what's on the table.
- Fabric — chosen and matched already, no trip to the fabric shop
- Needles, thread, scissors — full set, yours to use
- A sewing machine — one each, and she'll show you the pedal
- Hands-on guidance — up to 10 people, guided one by one
- Your seat for 2 hours — Tue / Thu / Sat, several time slots
- The piece you make — finished that day, straight home with you
Nothing extra to pay. No material fee, no tool fee, no package to buy. You pick your fabric on the day from the options we have ready; photos are for reference only. Embroidery is a separate price (from RM 160), selectable on the same booking page.
How it works
Book online, or ask on WhatsApp first
Pay online and hold your seat, or ask your questions first. Either way is fine.
Come to the studio, Tue / Thu / Sat, several time slots
Bring nothing. We're in Bandar Mahkota Cheras, with parking right in front.
Finish it and take it home
Two hours later, you're holding something you made. Keep it, or give it away.
You might be wondering
I have never sewn in my life. Can I really join?
Yes. Most people who come have never held a needle before. The instructor guides you step by step, and if something goes wrong you simply unpick it and start again — everyone at the table is a beginner, all starting from the same place.
What does the fee include? Do I need to buy materials separately?
Everything is included — fabric, needles, thread, scissors, sewing machines and the instructor's guidance. Nothing extra to buy. Come empty-handed and take your finished piece home.
How long is one session? Do I have to sign up for many?
2 hours, single session. One time is one time — no package to buy, no commitment to how long you will study. Come back if you enjoyed it.
Can children join?
Yes. Anyone aged 12 and above can join, alongside adults in the same session. For under 12, message us on WhatsApp first so we can plan around your child. The studio also runs a separate children's sewing course on weekdays.
Where is Life'n Craft? Is parking easy?
The studio is at No 5-1, Jalan Temenggung 27/9, Bandar Mahkota Cheras, 43200 Cheras, Selangor, with parking right in front (Google Maps · Waze). If none of the Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday time slots works for you, leave your name on WhatsApp for the waiting list — you will be first to hear about new time slots.
What else does Life'n Craft offer besides the trial workshop?
The studio runs a children's sewing course on weekdays (small group, learning the sewing machine from scratch), also teaches embroidery and pattern cutting, and retails fabric, zips, embroidery thread and sewing tools.
