About this Event
Bring your machine and your patience! In this class you'll learn your way around your home sewing machine and make a cute tote to take home!
Included in your class is everything you'll need for the project except your sewing machine! (Only 4 available) You'll get to take home some beginner sewing essentials and the tote you make in class! I'll have light snacks but please feel free to bring your own coffee, matcha or snack! <3
What to bring:
Your machine
Your patience
The pedal and plug to your machine (some come attached together as one, some come separately.)look below
The presser foot to your machine. look below
Yourself
Any snacks and drinks you might wanna have!
WHAT NOT TO BRING:
I know it's hard to commit to a machine when you're unsure if you'll even like this hobby but please do not bring smaller sewing machines. I've added some examples below to show what machine not to bring. These machines almost ALWAYS have issues and make learning a new skill very stressful! These machines either don't work at all, give you issues when backstitching (I will explain what this means in class) and allows for little to no control on the speed of your needle, even though it has a presser foot. To make this class more enjoyable for you, please rent a machine if you're unsure you want to commit to such a big purchase. The ones I use are great beginner machines and under $100!
PEDAL AND PLUG FOR YOUR MACHINE
The pedal is what moves the needle and fabric through your machine!
You need the pedal to use your machine, you cannot use it without this (some very fancy machines can but thats rare)
WHAT IS A PRESSER FOOT?
It's what holds the fabric down while you sew, you cannot sew without this. It's infamous for popping off, if you don't know how to put it on that's okay. Bring it to class and I will help you! Just make sure you have it! It can be purchased online if you can't find it.
