About the event
In this series, you will learn the basics of sewing a garment. You are welcome to come to some, or all of the classes. Each class will build somewhat on previous classes.
In part 2 you will learn more about reading paper patterns! We will find the pattern pieces you need and prepare them for use. Learn about folding your fabric so you can make the most out of the fabric you purchased. Then, place, pin, and cut your garment pieces! If time permits, you can start sewing your garment.
Feel free to bring your own machine if you have one!
