If you’ve been eagerly awaiting the return of The Great British Sewing Bee 2025, you’re not alone! Like many sewing fans across the UK and beyond, we’ve been trying to guess when it will be back on our screens based on past air dates. We’re expecting Series 11 to begin in June 2025 on BBC One.
We can’t wait to see what the new batch of talented sewists sew up, and to discover what creative challenges Patrick & Esme have in store for them. Every season leaves us bursting with ideas and itching to sew.
Your very own Sewing Bee starts this summer
This summer, we’re hosting our Sew-Along Festival: 5 days of sewing, tutorials, and connection. It’s basically your very own sewing bee – minus the time constraints, tricky challenges, and there’s definitely no judging involved!
What’s included?
• 12 PDF sewing patterns
• 12 step-by-step video tutorials
• 13 inspiring interviews (including one with Patrick Grant himself!)
• Live daily sewing hangout with Alice
• Lifetime access to all the content
• And a genuinely supportive online sewing community
It’s like your own personal sewing bee, only you’re free to stitch in your pyjamas and no time constraints so you can pause for tea whenever you like!



Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced maker, this festival is all about leaning, creativity and fun. No competition, just 100s of lovely sewists cheering each other on.
Let’s sew together this summer and make something amazing!
