Sew Simple
Familiar with your sewing machine’s basic functions but nervous about tackling a project on your own? Get a better understanding of the sewing process as you receive step-by-step assistance making a simple piece of clothing. Project possibilities include pajama bottoms, a skirt, top, or dress. We will cover buttonholes, zippers, pockets, fitting, and types of hemming and finishes, plus see how a serger can add to your sewing experience.
Please note: Bring your sewing machine in good working order, along with your machine’s instruction manual, if you have it.
