Turning down a small alleyway in North Melbourne the last thing you would expect to come across is a sewing lounge but if that alleyway is just off Errol Street then that is exactly what you will find. Climb your way up the stairs to find a cosy but organised place selling an array of beautiful vintage and original fashions and a light filled space equipped with sewing machines and overlockers for hire. Thread Den opened in November 2007 and is the creation of Melissa Kramer, Kylie Shepherd, Erica Menting and Tennille Rohde.

You can hire a sewing machine by the hour or attend one of their Many classes, they have previously used BurdaStyle patterns which include the Anita jeans. They also offer private lessons and in January will have a week full summer holiday program suitable for kids and teens.
