Sewing Machine Basics
November 7 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm Pacific
In this first beginner sewing class students will learn how to thread a sewing machine, wind a bobbin, sew a straight stitch and pivot a corner. We will construct a pillow case together. You will also learn some very basic info about fabrics. If time allows for each student you will also learn how to finish your raw edges of the fabric using a zigzag stitch. You will leave class with a finished pillowcase. All materials are included.
MACHINE OPTION: It’s ideal to learn on your own sewing machine, but you may also borrow and learn on one of ours. Please note, if bringing your own sewing machine it is very important to make sure it is fully functional. You will need all the cords, the manual, the presser foot, at least 1 bobbin and the bobbin case. Check this ahead of time. No experience necessary.
Note: Please be punctual to this class. Students who show up more than 15 min late will not be able to catch up, and will be turned away to keep the class on schedule. Plan ahead for traffic and parking.
