Each week we will build on your sewing knowledge and skills and by the end of the series you will have a fun modern top and you can say “I Made It”!

• Understanding how a sewing machine works and what all the knobs do

• Learn how to read and understand sewing patterns

• Garments construction 101 from how to properly cut your fabric, sewing a seam, applying a bias tape neckline

• Learn all your sewing basics and a ton of tips on how to sew like a pro

You will leave this series with a beginner sewing tool kit (including a pincushion w/pins, seam gauge, seam ripper, and measuring tape), your custom-made buffalo plaid top, and all the newly gained knowledge to tackle your next sewing project with confidence.

You will need you to purchase the PDF pattern we'll be using in class: 100 Acts of Sewing - Shirt No. 1($15). Since this pattern is made by an independent artist we require that students purchase the pattern to support their art and small business - we can print the materials for you in the shop with a proof of purchase.

Sewing machines, fabric, thread, and needles will be provided for you. Prefer to bring your own fabric? You’ll need 2 yards of woven fabric (quilting cotton, cotton flannel, linen, poplin, chambray, double gaze, etc.). Please no jersey or knits, as they aren't suable for shirt pattern used in class.
