Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom Guthrie & Ghani Ltd Full time

About The Company


We believe that by using quality supplies, and learning skills to either create things for yourself or mend what is broken, you can achieve excellent professional results that look beautiful.

At guthrie & ghani we provide a range of carefully selected products to support individuals in the art and craft of sewing and dressmaking.

We do much more than simply supply patterns and materials for people to make their own garments, we provide guidance and support to help individuals develop their skills and create something beautiful.

The shop is based in Moseley, Birmingham and we also run workshops at a variety of locations, and these include retreats and master classes through to beginner and children's classes.

We have a strong brand, and our website provides a shop window for internet sales.


Through The guthrie & ghani Sewing Society (SS), each month we provide carefully curated Sewing Society Kits containing everything necessary to create a stylish indie garment.

The SS Kits have an international following and have encompassed stylish coats, dresses, jackets, tops, and skirts.

They provide a unique one box solution for individuals to make a garment from carefully selected and coordinated materials, removing the guesswork of pairing a pattern with an appropriate fabric and accessories.


We are committed to providing our clients with an unparalleled level of service and quality of product and are driven to add suitable additional products to our offering to meet these aims.

We are an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
