Imagine spending a week immersed in color, fabric, creativity, and fun. Have you dreamed of making a flowing dress, fabulous pants, that perfect bag or pillows galore? Do you need an extra pair of eyes and hands to figure out what hasn’t been quite right with your previous projects?

By dedicating 3 hours each day to sewing, folks will have the time, space, and support to make great progress in building foundational sewing skills while working on projects of their choosing.

Classes are small, the vibe is great, and supportive and personalized instruction is always nearby.

Details: Sessions last one week and are 3-hours per day.

Cost: $300

August 3rd - 7th from 9am - noon

Ages: 15+

Who should join this class: Folks brand-new to machine sewing and/or who feel their skills are pretty rusty.

In the beginner class you’ll learn and practice foundational skills of machine sewing by diving right into simple projects (you’ll get to choose from a variety of options). Your creations may be a little wonky at first, but you’ll glow with pride because you made it!

Materials: Bring your own fabric and thread. Sewing machines and all other necessary equipment are provided.

Students will learn how to:

• Operate a sewing machine confidently

• Interpret and follow a pattern

• Choose the right fabric for your project

• Measure, mark and cut materials

• Sew straight-ish seams

August 3rd - 7th from 1-4pm

Ages: 15+

Who should join this class: Folks who are mostly comfortable on a sewing machine and have an idea of what they want to make or alter.

In the Skill Builder class you make/alter/mend what you want while receiving individualized support (and cheerleading!) within a small-group class setting. 

If you don’t have a project in mind, just reach out for ideas. I love to collaborate :-)

Materials: Bring your own fabric, thread and pattern. Sewing machines and all other equipment are provided.
