Join us on Monday, February 3rd from 6-8 pm as we learn to work with a sewing machine. Walk through the in's and out's of setting up your sewing machine and sewing the basic seams. As we learn, we will make 3 stitch samples together.

Students will walk out of the class knowing:

• how to thread your machine

• how to thread your bobbin

• how to troubleshoot simple issues on their machine

• what tools are essential for sewing

• how to sew a plain seam, French seam, serge finish seams without a serger

  No machine? Not a problem. We will have machines for you to use if needed. If you do own a machine, it is suggested you bring it so you can go home knowing how to use your machine!

What students receive:

• guided assistance from our knowledgeable instructor

• sparkling cider (non-alcoholic), or sparkling water to enjoy as you create

• 10% off coupon to use in our store!
