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
This Class Is For You If:
You are 16 or older
There’s no need to have any previous sewing experience!
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 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.
Date/Time:
Friday, September 25th from 6-9 pm
Location:
theDock: Centre for Social Impact, 722 Cormorant St. (near City Hall)
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.
