About This Activity
Learn the basics of machine sewing and troubleshooting problems while working on 3 fun projects. As we learn about machine sewing, we'll be making an envelope pillow with insert, a pillowcase using the roll-up method, and a zippered pouch. Skills learned will include basic sewing machine care and problem solving; preparing, measuring, and cutting fabric; sewing French seams; installing a zipper; and using various machine feet. We will also learn what to do when things go wrong (this varies from class to class). Please bring a working sewing machine if you have one as there will be only a limited number of machines available. No class 10/6 or 10/13. Sandy Clement has been teaching sewing classes for over 10 years. She has sewn since she was a child and has found it to be a valuable life-long skill. She has helped with costuming for local school and theater groups.
