Hemming Pants & Intro To Machine Sewing with Amelia

From Amelia (they/them):

Hemming class-(3:00-4:30) We'll cover how to shorten pants that are too long, or make pants into shorts. This method will work for any kind of woven material (jeans, khakis, Dickies, flannel, linen, canvas, etc.) but isn't recommended for super stretchy fabrics like leggings or yoga pants. We'll primarily be working with sewing machines but will touch on hand sewing methods as well.

Don't know how to use a sewing machine? Come early (2:00-3:00) and we'll start from the very beginning on how to sew with a machine. All participants are asked to BYOP (Bring Your Own Pants) and thread to match them.

No other supplies are required, but if you have additional supplies or your own machine, please bring those as well--a short inventory survey will be sent out to better understand the needs of the class before we get started. Masks requested and provided.
