Intro to Sewing

Ready to finally learn how to sew? This beginner-friendly 3-part course is your chance to go from “I’ve never touched a sewing machine” to confidently creating your own handmade pieces. Over three Friday mornings, you’ll build skills step-by-step while making projects you’ll actually use and love.

  • Build foundational sewing skills through hands-on practice
  • Complete three projects across different sewing categories:

  • Pajama shorts (fashion)
  • Gain the confidence to continue sewing on your own after the course
