Class Date: November 16th 10am-7pm

Been wanting to dive into sewing your own garments? This Sewing 201 class is for you.

Join us for an all-day intensive workshop, during which, you will cut and sew a canvas chore coat to fit your measurements. We will start by taking and recording your measurements, learn how to use and read a PDF pattern, then use the pattern to cut your fabric. You will then assemble your pieces into a canvas chore coat, learning skills and techniques for assembling a collar, inserting a sleeve and topstitching.

By the end of our 9-hours together, you will leave with an assembled garment, however finishing touches like buttons, buttonholes and pockets, may need to be completed at home. If you have your own sewing machine, we highly recommend bringing it for this class so you can get comfortable learning the ins and outs of your machine!

Please note, this workshop requires all participants to have recent sewing experience. To be eligible to sign up, students must have completed our Intro to Sewing Course OR have proficient understanding and application of how to use a home sewing machine including threading the machine, winding a bobbin, adjusting stitch settings and changing presser feet.

Breathe some new life into your old clothing & fabric! This Sewing 101 class will cover how to use a home sewing machine and teach students how to repurpose materials to start a basic upcycling project.

In our Upcycling class, students will learn about the basic principles of upcycling and how to cut existing clothing or fabric and prepare it for sewing. We will also go over the basics of using a home sewing machine - how to get set up, sewing workstation ergonomics, how to thread a machine, how to wind a bobbin, and using a straight stitch and a zig zag stitch.

Students will be able to choose their own project from the following options:

- Pillow/cushion or floor pouf

- Braided fabric coasters

- Oven mitts and pot holders

- T-shirt quilt

For this workshop, students are highly encouraged to bring their own materials to upcycle - including t-shirts, jeans, denim, and any other fabric or clothing they're looking to repurpose. If you are unable to bring your own materials or need more, you will be able to use fabric scraps provided by the instructor.

Workshop fee includes usage of sewing machines, tools and notions, and white or black thread for your project.

Please note, due to the personalized nature of each upcycling project, students may not complete their project by the end of the workshop. If you do not complete your project, we will provide instructions on how to complete the project at home and encourage you to bring your project to our next Open Studio session for more time on our sewing machines.
