Sewing 101 Around the House

classbutton3

The beginner sewing class series, Sewing 101, is designed for those who have never sewed a stitch before or for those who have dabbled in it a bit, but would like to have a better overall foundation of sewing to follow patterns and tutorials!

My goal is for you to leave this workshop feeling confident with your machine, comfortable in following a patterns and tutorials,  and excited to dive into projects on your own!
This is a beginner's level workshop, meaning if you are already sewing dresses, bags, pillow, etc. you probably won't benefit much from the material covered in this class. 

We begin with a general overview of sewing with a machine, including the different types of sewing techniques, stitch applications, troubleshooting, and the best places to buy fabric and patterns.  We will then move onto three different sewing projects which incorporate all of the sewing techniques you will need to begin sewing on your own!
Cost: $85

 The sewing projects for Sewing Around the House include:
-Ruffled Scarf
-Covered notebook
-Apron
