Sewing Basics

In this five-week course, learn how to use that sewing machine, or hone existing skills. Enter the DIY world of fabric wonder with instruction on threading the machine, mechanical procedures, proper tension, and basic stitches. Returning students pick up where you left off and launch into the next sewing project. Newbies pick a simple starter project – a pillow cover, tote bag, skirt, or easy pattern. Veterans bring your next pattern to class. You’ll need a sewing machine with instruction manual, bobbins, thread, fabric, and scissors.
