What You'll Learn & Create:

  • Machine Basics: We'll start with a relaxed, hands-on introduction to the sewing machine, covering everything from threading and different stitches to speed control and safety.
  • Create Your Custom Tote: Choose from a wide variety of pre-cut fabrics (body, trim, lining, and handles) to design a bag that is uniquely yours.
  • Step-by-Step Sewing: We'll work together, moving slowly through each step—pinning, stitching, and assembly—ensuring everyone is comfortable and confident.
  • Spooky Embellishments: Finish your creation by adding a little Halloween flair with fun iron-on patches!

Who is this class for?

  • Beginner Friendly for ALL! Whether you've never touched a sewing machine or have a little experience, everyone is welcome.

Everything is included! We provide all sewing machines, tools, a huge selection of fabrics, and the fun Halloween patches. Just show up and be ready to create!
