This class is from 5:30 to 7:30 pm
Do you like wearing clothes? I know I sure do!
The first step to creating clothing, stuffed animals, or even just mending a tea-towel is learning how to use a sewing machine. We will take you step-by-step through the basics of a modern sewing machine, including how to wind a bobbin, how to thread the machine, and how to adjust for different stitch styles and tensions. We will talk about how to make a button hole with the pre-set button option, the difference between the different feet for selected fabrics, and other practical things, like type of stitch, width of hem, adding darts, and the modern miracle that is an automatic needle threader!
For Fab Lab members, this is the course you need to use the sewing machines at the Fab Lab, and for everyone else, this is a good primer for those who have never sewn, and a good refresher for those who have not done it in years!
