Learn the basics of machine sewing during this four-session class especially for beginners. Everyone will design and sew their own reversible tote bag. Bring your own sewing machine or use one from our studio. All materials are provided.\n
\n
Week 1: Learn about the machine – what everything is called and how it works. Then jump right in and practice sewing straight and curved lines.\n
\n
Week 2: Become more familiar with threading your machine, winding the bobbin, and changing stitches. Learn about interfacing and how to use a pattern. Begin designing your tote bag by choosing fabric for the interior, exterior, and handles.\n
\n
Week 3: Start cutting and sewing your project. Learn about pinning, seam allowances, pressing seams, and clipping corners.\n
\n
Week 4: Complete your bag by assembling the parts and adding a row of topstitching. You’ll be proud of all you’ve learned and have the confidence to begin sewing clothes, home decor, quilts, toys, and more!
