About this Event
Do you want to learn how to use a sewing machine, but don't know where to start? Do you have a sewing machine that you'd like to better understand? Come to this workshop to learn the basics of how these machines work and how to use them! We will be demonstrating basic sewing and quilting techniques for a variety of different fabrics, with a limited number of machines available for practice. Participants are encouraged to bring their own machine if you have one, and will be given materials to practice with. This is a two-hour workshop that will be demonstration and tutorial based, brought to you by Trans Tailoring.

Gene Anderson (they/he) is a self-taught stitcher, quilter and designer who learned to sew clothes that fit his trans body from the generosity of queer sewing mentors, and Trans Tailoring was created as a way to continue and expand that journey with others. Gene is the creator of The Jilt and several machine-sewn quilts, as well as a local bookkeeper, plant dad, and part-time queer brunch host.
