Discover the secrets to a harmonious relationship with your sewing machine in this beginner's sewing class. Learn the essentials of threading and unthreading, and create a stunning tote bag without any frustration.
Haley is very patient and knowledgeable. She went out of her way to give us pointers on setting up our personal sewing machines. I will definitely look into taking another sewing class with her.
Ever wanted to hit your sewing machine? The Beginning sewing class will rebuild your confidence so you can start new with a beautiful relationship.
We show you how to thread, wind and troubleshoot a standard home sewing machine, as well as how to sew a tote bag from start to finish graciously without hurting your new favorite home appliance.
Everything you need is included in this class. Just bring yourself! We provide a variety of different model sewing machines to show you the basics of how the machine operates. We use the brands Singer, Janome, Juki and Brother.
This class is focused on the operation of sewing machines and how to use them properly but we cannot accommodate students with their own machines due to different levels of workability and set up that may delay the class for other students.
