Beginner Sewing Class: Sew Your Own PJ Shorts (Pilot Class)
Advertisement
Ever wanted to sew your own clothes but didn't know where to start? This beginner-friendly class will teach you the fundamentals of garment sewing while you make a real, wearable pair of PJ shorts to take home.
This is a Pilot Class — a discounted, first-run version of a brand-new class, priced at 50% off ($95 instead of $190). Since it's a practice run to dial in timing and instructions, the schedule has some flexibility built in (please build buffer into your day), and photos will be taken to help refine the class going forward. Full details on what that means are available on our website.
What you'll make:
Your own elastic-waist PJ shorts using the Rosery Shorts pattern — designed specifically as a first sewing project for total beginners.
What you'll learn:
🧵 Threading your machine
🧵 Basic machine settings & controls
🧵 Sewing with woven fabrics
🧵 Cutting on the grainline
🧵 Seam allowances & why they matter
🧵 Cutting from a pattern
🧵 Marking & using notches
🧵 Straight-stitching, hemming & elastic casing
Details:
📍 Home Sewing Studio, Elboya, SW Calgary
👥 Max 3 people — small group, lots of hands-on help
🔞 Ages 15+
✅ No experience needed, just the desire to learn!
