Beginner Sewing Classes

If you’ve ever wanted to learn to sew but didn’t know where to start — this class is for you.

Our Beginner Sewing Course: Starting From Scratch is a supportive, hands-on course designed for absolute beginners. Over six guided class sessions, students learn the foundations of sewing while completing real, useful projects they’ll be proud to take home.

This is not a lecture-style class. Every session is practical, approachable, and paced to ensure students truly understand what they’re doing — and why they’re doing it.

Students begin with the basics and steadily build skills each week, gaining confidence with both their sewing machine and essential techniques.

Throughout the course, students will learn:

• Sewing machine anatomy and safety
• Threading the machine, winding bobbins, and changing needles
• Stitch selection, stitch length, tension, and backstitching
• Straight stitching and zigzag stitching
• Fabric types, grain, selvedge, and pre-washing
• Cutting fabric accurately using shears and rotary cutters
• Reading and using simple patterns
• Pressing, seam finishes, hems, and professional sewing habits
• Zippers, elastic casings, boxed corners, and embellishments
• Sewing buttonholes and attaching buttons by machine

Each new skill is reinforced through guided practice and real project construction.

 Students complete multiple beginner-friendly projects that reinforce core sewing skills:

• Tote Bag (with optional boxed corners and embellishments)
• Lined Zipper Pouch
• Microwave-Safe Bowl Cozy
• Hair Scrunchie
• Button and Buttonhole Skill Workshop

These projects are carefully selected to build skills progressively — no busywork, no filler.

 You don’t need to bring anything except yourself.

All fabric, supplies, tools, patterns, and practice materials are provided as part of the course. Sewing machines are available for use during class.

Optional take-home kits may be available for students who want extra practice between sessions, but they are never required.

Classes are intentionally kept small to ensure:

• Individual instruction
• Hands-on guidance
• Time for questions
• A relaxed, encouraging atmosphere

Whether you’re a teen, adult, homeschool student, or a family member learning together, you’ll feel supported every step of the way.

 We proudly support students and homeschool families.

Students receive a $20 discount, and the same $20 discount is extended to immediate family members who enroll as well.

To qualify, students must provide a current school ID or homeschool documentation at registration.

By the end of the course, students will:

• Understand how to confidently use a sewing machine
• Know how to choose fabric and prepare it correctly
• Be able to follow patterns and complete beginner projects independently
• Have the skills needed to move on to more advanced sewing projects
• Take home multiple completed items — and the confidence to keep sewing

Students also receive curated resource links and project ideas to continue practicing after class.

This course fills quickly due to limited class size.
