BYOP (bring your own project baby!)

$195.00
Dates:

BYOP is: part guided work session /part cute-little-hang with the gggirls. Designed to give you the time, space, and support to make real progress on your project! Whether you're finishing a half-made garment, starting something from a pattern, or reworking a thrifted find, this is for you.

We won't all be working on the same thing, but you'll have access to tools, a creative community, and guidance from an experienced instructor (that's me!) to help troubleshoot along the way. Think of it as all the know-how of a proper workshop, minus structured feel. A group private lesson/ Kiki with a good playlist, candy, and gossip.

What is Included:

🌟 Instructor-supported work time
🧠 On-demand troubleshooting and support while you sew
🌎 Access to studio space and worktables
🛠️ Use of sewing machines, serger and basic studio tools (scissors, cutting mats, irons, etc.)
🤸‍♀️ A creative, cozy, community-driven environment
🍭Little snacky bits

Prerequisites:

💃🏼 Ability to work semi-independently, with support as needed

🤸‍♀️ If you are doing a sewing machine project then you are required to have recent sewing machine experience — this is not a learn-to-sew class. Students who have taken classes & private lessons with me tend to be the most prepared. My teaching style builds the strong foundation for all other classes. That said, if you feel confident, you know yourself best! This note is simply here to make sure you're set up to enjoy every minute — not spend it catching up or unlearning old habits. If you're not sure if you meet the prerequisite - reach out I’d love to chat this over with you!

👉Note: This class is for adults. If you're interested in classes for kids or teens, email me to inquire!

Inspo for project ideas:

✨the stack of pants side-eyeing you for a hem
🪲that great pattern you cut out last fall and never started sewing
🫧the thrifted find with serious upcycle potential
🔥the pile of boring alterations that'd be more fun with friends
🦩the jeans you've been meaning to cover in hand embroidery
🐥the zipper you've been too scared to install solo
🫜that "quick fix" that's been sitting in your bag for months

What you need to bring:

🧵 All materials needed for your project including thread, trims etc.
🎨 A project idea (pattern, mending goal, etc.—we’ll help you bring it to life)

👉Note: Material for purchase are limited in the studio but maybe available if forgotten ie: Thread fee, interfacing, embroidery floss, fabric, patterns etc
