Sewing Level 1: Clothes (7 Week Class)

About this event

Learn the basics of sewing in Sewing Level 1. This class is for complete beginners and folks looking for a refresher on sewing.

Starting Week 1, you will learn the Ins and Outs of using your sewing machine. You will practice threading your sewing machine, winding a bobbin, and basic skills like sewing straight lines and creating hems.

This class is BYOF (bring your own fabric!) . You will need to have your fabric purchased by Week 3. We will go over what type of fabric to buy in Week 1!
