DESCRIPTION

A gentle and practical introduction to using a sewing machine, perfect for absolute beginners.

In this 3-hour crash course you will learn the essentials of how a sewing machine works so you can begin your sewing journey with confidence. We’ll guide you through how to thread the machine, adjust basic settings, and sew simple stitches like straight stitch and zig zag.

If you have never used a sewing machine before then this class is highly recommended as a starting point before joining any of our other courses. It’s designed to help you feel more comfortable and capable, so you can get the most out of future workshops.

You’ll leave with a small sample of stitched fabrics, a better understanding of your tools, and the confidence to keep going.
