I teach a beginner's sewing class about three times a year. Here are some things that we cover in class:
-the parts of your machine
-winding and inserting a bobbin
-threading the machine
-basic stitch types
-hand stitching
-fabric care and preparation
-using interfacing
-seam allowances
-project planning and pattern reading
Class members can choose between two projects to work on during class time- a set of 8 cloth napkins or a simple tote bag. We will cover the basic skills you need to use your machine and then complete a project together before the last class is over.
The main goal of this class is to have FUN while learning the basic knowledge you will need to begin the very rewarding hobby of sewing!
