Did someone pass a machine on to you but you don’t know if it works? Curious about sewing and want to try out a machine before buying your own? If so, this class is for you!
You Will Learn:
How to thread a machine
How to wind a bobbin
How to use different stitches
How to sew different types of textiles/fabric
How to select the correct needle for your project
How to finish your seams
Class Level:
Level 0 - No experience required
Age:
16 and up
Class Supplies:
Please bring the following:
A sewing machine, if you have one! (Don’t forget your foot pedal, an empty bobbin, and your machine’s manual, if you have one). If you don’t, you’re welcome to use one of mine.
A spool of standard thread (polyester or cotton, from Guterman or Mettler - no dollar store or vintage thread, please, as it’s liable to break)
I will supply scraps of fabric to practise on.
Note: If you’ve never tried your machine before, or if it’s been sitting for a long time, it’s possible you’ll find out in class that it needs to be serviced. If this is the case, I can lend you a machine to practise on during class.
