About this Event

Step into the beautiful Evergreen Cultural center , and spend two days slowing down, creating, and connecting. Our Beginner Sewing workshop designed to feel less like a class and more like a nourishing escape — where you’ll learn new skills, make something with your hands, and enjoy the simple joy of making alongside others.

Throughout the 2 days , you’ll be guided through the foundations of sewing while working on two garments of your choice — tank top , a relaxed top, flowy or straight pants, or a flowing skirt. Our session are is gentle and supportive, giving you plenty of time to explore, ask questions, and enjoy the process.

We’ll pause together for tea, snacks, and moments to stretch and chat, so the day feels as restorative as it is creative. You’ll leave not only with a handmade garment, but with a sense of calm, inspiration, and the confidence to keep sewing at home.


During the workshop, we will focus on practical skills, including all the essentials to cut and sew accessories and clothess , how to master basic sewing skills like cutting non stretchy fabrics, hemming , creating an elastic waistband , and a facing to finish armholes and necklines , darts for shaping, how to use a commercial pattern .

This retreat is open to beginners 16+ — no experience needed.

Tools, machines, Fabrics and patterns are all provided (you’re welcome to bring your own if you prefer). Just your curiosity, and a willingness to spend the day making something beautiful. Access to our digital patterns that you can bring home to recreate your garment.

Dates: Saturdays October 4th & Saturday October 11th, 10am to 4:30pmpm ,

Location: Evergreen Cultural Center 1205 Pinetree Way, Coquitlam BC, V3B 7Y3
