This workshop is for students with prior sewing machine experience. It will not be a "learn to sew" class; however, beginners are welcome! If you have never sewn or need a refresher check out [Sewing 101]!
👉Note: This class is for adults. If you're interested in classes for kids or teens, email me to inquire!
🧵3 Hours of Workshop
💃 Live demo
🛠️ Use of sewing machines and basic studio tools
🎨 Practice materials
👚 Work time on your actual existing garments
👯♀️ Individualized guidance from me!
👉Note: This does not include final garments to alter. (see below)
👖Garments that you want to alter or practice on. Appropriate options for this specific class are woven garments (i.e., pants, dresses, or skirts). You can bring jeans; however, there are special techniques required to maintain the original hem. I suggest checking out {Alterations – Jeans} for this type of hem.
💔Items in need of repair: this is an alterations class not a mending class. Check our the [mending workshops]
Soiled or dirty items: all items must be clean and freshly laundered
🧶Knit garments: we will be focusing on woven garments during this basic alterations class.
👉Note: If the materials brought by the student are not appropriate for the project or they forget them, students can purchase provided materials at the time of class.
