Learn about core sewing skills and make a project.
About this Event

Join us for this hands-on workshop where you'll learn essential sewing techniques, such as measuring, cutting, and assembling fabric pieces. We'll teach you how to set up the sewing machine and work with a sewing pattern.

In this class we're making a drawstring bag. The core skills we're covering are:

  • easy hemming
  • seams and seam finishing
  • insert a drawstring

You'll want to hem everything after taking this class!

Don't worry if you don't have any sewing experience or equipment. We'll provide all the necessary materials and sewing machines for you to use during class. You are encouraged to bring your own sewing machine, with the power cord, foot control, and all accessories. Every person in the classroom needs a ticket for class, even if you are sharing a sewing machine.

Spaces are limited, so make sure to reserve your spot today. This is a great opportunity to meet fellow sewing enthusiasts and have fun learning new skills. We can't wait to see you!

Bring to class: Sewing machine with power cord, foot control, all attachments and instruction manual, if available

Class length: 3 hours

Class size: 4 minimum, 8 maximum

Age range: All ages

Instructor

Shannon Marshall, owner of Sonoma County Sewing Company.

Shannon has been a professional seamstress since 1998, a sewing teacher since 2005, and a local business owner since 2017.
