Machine Sewing Basics I- Coming spring 2025
There is a Basics II version of this class coming in the spring semester! If you are interested in taking this Basics I class, please contact me for availibility!
In this class I'll introduce you to your* sewing machine! You will learn how to wind a bobbin, thread your sewing machine, change a needle, switch and practice stitches, practice sewing in a straight line and learn how to create a small zippered pouch project by the end of class. This introductory class is great for beginners or those that need a refresher.
Please note: You'll need your own machine, plus thread, needle and pins for this class.
What you'll get:
- practice fabric and a variety of project fabrics
- tips and tricks for using your machine
- one on one help in creating your project
- lengthy support for mastering the process
- patient and at-your-own-pace learning
*Fee DOES NOT include the use of a sewing machine! Please bring your own!*
This class is BYOB, and drinking, (or eating, if you’d like to bring snacks), are always options!
I am dedicated to offering stress free, stress reducing art classes that are fun, no matter what your art experience may be!
While you go at your own rate in all my classes, this tends to be a slow process class.
*As with all Ruthi Makes classes, no previous experience in art or special talents are necessary!*
