Basic Machine Sewing for Beginners!
About this Event

This class is intended for those who have never sewn by machine (or maybe it's been a long time). We'll discuss the basics of how sewing machines work and practice using them without thread before we learn to fill bobbins and start to sew a simple project like a pillow or bag. You can bring your own sewing maching or use one of ours for a small upcharge in ticket price. Participants should bring fabric shears and any special fabric you may want to use. We'll have fabric available for use if you don't have any already. This class is for adults. No experience necessary.

If you need to use one of our sewing machines in the Art Room please add on the Machine Use fee before check out.
