These courses will cover everything from the basics to more advanced techniques. Bring your own machine, and learn what you never knew you could create!

Sewing Maching Basics: Ready to pick up that needle and thread for the first time? Or finally take that sewing machine you bought out of the box and put it to good use? In Sewing Machine Basics we are going back to the basics, starting from scratch, and taking you step by step through all the essentials to make learning to sew a fun, useful and creative experience.

Sewing Machine Basics is perfect for complete beginners & people who have sewn in the past but need a refresher, where they will learn how to competently use a sewing machine and complete a simple pillowcase using fabric provided. If your sewing machine has a known issue or is displaying an error code, please have it serviced and ready to sew before bringing it to class.  

Save Those Jeans!: In this class you will learn how to repair denim using various techniques on your sewing machine and by other methods. You'll be using lots of techniques that can also be hand-sewn. We will be cover patching (hand and machine), iron-on, peekaboo iron-on, specialty patches, and darning (darning requires a sewing machine.) Extra needles and scrap denim will be provided.

Quilt Tops 101 - Basic Skills:  This class will cover what you need to know BEFORE you get started. Topics will include, but not be limited, to cutting accurately, grain/crossgrain/bias and proper seam allowances and squaring. Consider this the 'Measure-Twice-Cut-Once' of quilting classes!

Quilt Tops 201 - Memory Quilt: T-Shirt quilts are a great way to remember special events or a time in your life, such as graduations, retirements and races. The list of T-Shirt quilt themes can go on and on. We know there are people out there wondering how they're going to get that memory quilt done in time for their child or grandchild graduation, and this is the best place to start!

Here’s what we’re going to cover in our class series:
