Learn to Sew: Beginner Garment Class (Shorts or Pants)

Ready to start your sewing journey? This beginner-friendly class will guide you through the essentials of garment sewing while you create a comfortable, versatile pair of shorts or pants.

Over 8 hours of instruction (2 hours each Tuesday evening in June), you’ll build confidence and practical skills as you work step-by-step through your project. Choose between an elastic waistband or drawstring style, with the option to add pockets for extra function.

Along the way, you’ll learn how to:

• Take accurate body measurements and choose the right size
• Work with a digital sewing pattern
• Cut fabric with precision
• Sew strong, clean seams
• Construct a waistband (elastic or drawstring)
• Add pockets (optional)
• Finish your garment with professional techniques

By the end of the course, you’ll leave with a handmade piece you can wear proudly—and the skills to keep sewing on your own.
