Event Overview - FOR THE FULL DETAILS, USE THE LINK ABOVE
Our Beginning sewing series is great for those who don't want to spend 5 hours at our studio, but DO want to know all the tips and tricks for better sewing! You still get the HANDS-ON TIME IN PERSON you need to be comfortable with your sewing, AND you can now learn on your own schedule then PRACTICE HANDS-ON IN PERSON with us in class...and you get full "anytime" access to the videos even after class! Neat!
Two of our classes are already "mostly talking", so we recorded the talking and made more in-class time for DOING! Less time and trips to the studio, with ALL the same info... you can watch at home, the coffee shop, anywhere, anytime! Over and over if you like!
PERFECT for new sewers looking to gain basic skills that can be applied to any sewing project. If you have a sewing machine bring it to class... or use one of ours!
Classes included are:
Sewing Machine Basics: In Person
Learn the basic stitches of the machine, proper cleaning techniques, identify the main parts of a machine and how they work, learn how to properly thread your machine for jam-free sewing.
Know Your Tools: Watch at home
Learn about the main tools used in the sewing process, how to use them to your maximum benefit, and what tools work best for specific projects. Perfect for those looking to set up a sewing area in their home without wasting space or blowing the budget! You will need to complete a short, fun online quiz to be ready for hands-on class.
Simple Seams: Watch at home
There's more to a great seam and edge finish than stitching a line and ironing it flat. Learn different seam finishes, how to properly press your seams, and how to get a professional finish every time! You will need to complete a short, fun online quiz to be ready for hands-on class.
Pressing 101: Watch at home
There's "ironing" and then there's PRESSING. Do you know the difference? Learn to get the most out of your iron and board, and what pressing tools to consider when building your sewing tool chest. If you want to take your sewing to the next level of professionalism quickly and easily, this is the class to take! You will need to complete a short, fun online quiz to be ready for hands-on class.
Edge Finishes and Hems: Watch at home
Finished edges give a crisp, well executed look to any project. Learn how to narrow edge hem, blindstitch a hem, and explore some fun finishes! You will need to complete a short, fun online quiz to be ready for hands-on class.
Seams & Edge Finishes and Hems In Person - (90+ min)
You've watched the videos, learned the WHY behind the techniques, now it's time to do it with your machine! We'll take you through each seam and edge finish from the videos so you solidify the techniques with hands-on practice! We'll supply all the materials, and at the end of class you take your samples with you so you can refer to them later on future projects.
You get full access to the videos even after the series is over, in addition to our helpful slides!
