About this Event

Have a sewing project you’re working on? Stuck at a tricky step? Or just want some extra guidance while you create? Come to our Open Sew Workshop!

This is a relaxed 2.5–3 hour session where everyone works on their own project, and I’ll be there to give personalized advice to help you move forward. Bring any project — whether it’s pattern-making, garment construction, fitting, or just a creative idea you’re excited about.

It’s a friendly, collaborative space where you can ask questions, try new things, and get expert help exactly where you need it. No pressure, no rules — just sewing, learning, and having fun.


Who this workshop is for:
  • Perfect for Sewing 101 graduates or anyone already able to work on their own projects
  • Not for complete beginners; participants should be able to manage basic sewing tasks independently
  • Ideal for sewists who need guidance, advice, or help with tricky techniques, fitting, or pattern adjustments



Why you’ll love it:
  • Get one-on-one guidance for your project
  • Solve tricky sewing, fitting, or pattern problems
  • Bring your creative ideas to life with support
  • Learn tips and tricks you can use on future projects



Workshop Details:
  • Date: Saturday, January 31
  • Time: 1:30–4:00 PM
  • Price: $85
  • Bring your current project(s) and any materials you’re working with
  • Everyone gets individual advice while working on their own project


Whether you’re an experienced sewist or just past beginner level, all participants will get support tailored to their projects, so you can move forward and finish what you’ve started!
