About this Event
In this 2 hour workshop you will learn how to take care of your sewing machine. We will go over the basics of how a sewing machine works, how often to change a needle on the sewing machine and how to clean the machine. We will also discuss when you would need to take your machine in to be serviced.
If you have a sewing machine, please bring it. We will have machines to demostrate on, however we feel it is most benefical to work on your own machine, as sewing machines can differ between brands.
You can register for this class in person starting October 28th. Online registration opens November 11.
