Please read through all of the details before signing up for this class.
We are excited to welcome back group sewing to the shop. We know many of you have worked independently on your sewing practice at home over the last few years, but sometimes you need a little support.
Supported Group Sew is here to help. This three hour group sewing session is for when you need a little extra help. Have you hit a spot in your sewing instructions that have you frustrated? Are you struggling to get your bias binding attached? Maybe you need help with your first ever buttonhole, or attaching that collar stand. Whatever has got you stuck, we are here to get you back on track.
This group sewing session will be led by an experienced sewing instructor who can help you through that challenging step in your project. Please note that this is not an individual lesson. Instructors will help as needed and cheer you on, but will be attending to others in the group as well (group is limited to 6).
During Supported Group Sewing you will have access to our entire studio space;
- large cutting tables
- pressing station
- special tools
- 4 sewing machines to reserve or bring your own machine from home
- 2 sergers and a cover stitch machine set up for all to use
When you sign up please select either a "reserve a studio machine" or "bring in my own machine" from the calendar. We also ask that you fill in our form and tell us a little bit about what you want to work on during the session (this is required in order to sign up).
