About the Class Beginner-friendly, hands-on class to learn sewing machine setup, care, and stitching basics—then create something new using reclaimed materials. This class is designed for you to learn on your own sewing machine, so please bring yours (including the manual) to use during the session.
What You’ll Learn
- The basic parts of your sewing machine and what they do
- How to thread your machine and wind a bobbin
- How to adjust tension for smooth stitching
- Essential machine care and maintenance
- How to use basic stitches to complete a simple project
What to Bring Your own portable sewing machine (in good working order) and its instruction manual. If you don’t have the manual in hand, they are widely available for download online. Scissors and thread will be provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own if preferred. All other materials will be provided.
Please Note Class begins promptly at 1:00pm. To keep things flowing smoothly for everyone, please plan to arrive a few minutes early to get settled before we start.
Keep in Mind Learning to sew is like learning to play an instrument—it takes time and practice. Once you understand the basics, your skills (and imagination) will grow with every project. This class is a perfect starting point for future sustainable sewing workshops at HoC
