Machine Sewing 101
January 12 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Whether you’re a complete beginner or looking for a refresher, this workshop will teach you all the ins and outs of a standard home sewing machine. We’ll use the Shoreline Tool Library’s machines to explore questions like…
How do sewing machines work? When should I use each stitch? What’s a bobbin? Why do all the parts have funny names? What’s the deal with the tension? Is this thing I heard about sewing a rule or a guideline? How soon can I make my dream project? And so much more!
You’ll come away with an understanding of machine sewing best practices, a stitch sampler, a PDF with all the information we cover in class, and the confidence to start tackling some projects.
(All tools and materials provided. 18+)
