LEARN TO SEW!


Have you ever wished you could sew things for your home?  Or have you just wanted to make simple things for yourself or your children?  Do you want your preteen/teen to know how to sew? I am now offering sewing lessons, ranging from beginner to more intermediate and advanced!

Beginner and intermediate classes will consist of  (4) two hour classes held once a week.  Class will be held weekdays and/or weeknights according to interest.
Advanced classes will be held in form of workshop, times and format will be discussed when class is formed.
Bring your own machine (can use mine in class if needed) and materials and choose your own project.
Cost for entire program is $75 for beginners, $100 for intermediate and advanced.

BEGINNER:  In the beginner class, (ages 10 to adult)  students will learn basic sewing skills including hand sewing, how to use their machine, read and interpret a pattern, and make a simple project such as pajama pants, aprons, simple pillows, or easy childrens clothes.

INTERMEDIATE: In the intermediate class, I will be helping students who have sewn before develop skills in a little more intricate children's clothes and home decorating projects such as more difficult pillows, drapery panels, valances and roman shades.  These pictures show some of the types of projects you try out!

ADVANCED:
In the advanced class, I will be teaching a higher level of detail and intricacy of home decor sewing.  This will be in the form of workshops for roman shades, drapery panels with details, valances with details and more intricate pillows and cushions.  The pictures below give an idea of what we can accomplish.

  1. I was *just* asking Ben if he thought it was a good idea to ask you to teach me to sew!! This is fantastic news. Do you know if you'll be having any classes in the start of the new year? With the house on the market, school starting & then the holidays, I'm thinking the new year would be the earliest I could really mentally commit. This is super exciting!!
