Skill Building Workshops

  • Do you know what you want to make and could use some guidance and encouragement?  Are you looking to level-up your skills and want support with those next steps?  With sewing, you never run out of things to learn.

    This class is for people who are comfortable and independent with a sewing machine and who have ideas about what they would like to make.

    You will receive individualized guidance (and cheerleading!) within a group class setting, about all aspects of your project. 

    Bring your own fabric, thread and pattern. Feel free to ask for project suggestions. Sewing machines and all other equipment is provided.

Open Sew Sessions

  • This is for folks who are relatively independent with their sewing and need just a little problem-solving or encouragement along the way.

    Quite often, sewing is a solitary activity, and this is a lovely opportunity to come together to build skills and have fun!

    Bring your own project: pattern, fabric, thread, and notions. 

    Open Sew will take place most Fridays from 10-noon and is $30 per session.

    Registration is REQUIRED.

    NOTE: If you need regular support or guidance while sewing, I ask that you book a 1:1 session.
