Intro to Sewing Course
sold out
This foundational sewing course is offered in two formats: a 2-Day (8-hour) or 4-Day (12-hour) option. Students are expected to come with little to no sewing experience, and will leave with the ability to independently tackle beginner sewing projects - like a tote bag or simple t-shirt.
Students will learn a number of technical skills, including:
How to thread and use a sewing machine
Straight stitch and back stitch
How to measure fabric
How to cut fabric
Working with zippers
Changing presser feet
Stitch reinforcement
Sewing is a skill built on repetition and during this course, you’ll build essential sewing skills through hands-on practice in a supportive, project-based classroom.
If you’ve purchased a machine and haven’t been able to get started, or watched 10 YouTube videos and still can’t crack the code, or are just curious about sewing basics - this class is for you! No experience or tools needed, just bring your enthusiasm, and we’ll cover the rest.
Throughout each session, you’ll gain practical knowledge and skills through a range of beginner-friendly projects that cover different types of sewing (eg. garment making, accessories, quilting, household items). Each participant should expect to finish the course with 2-3 completed projects and the skills and confidence to keep sewing on your own.
What’s included:
12 or 8 hours of instructor-led coursework
Cotton, linen, and polyester fabrics
Thread, zippers, and other notions
All tools and equipment needed for the course, including use of one of our Singer Heavy Duty sewing machines during class
Scrap fabric for practice
Projects may include:
Pattern weights, Quilted strip potholder, zip pouch, lined tote
