Participants will learn the different parts of a sewing machine and how to use it effectively. This includes threading the machine, winding a bobbin, understanding the purpose of the most used stitches, assembling a PDF pattern, and reading a commercial pattern (e.g., McCalls, Simplicity, Butterick). By the end of each session, participants will be amazed by their progress and the creations they can complete (such as zippered pouches). Materials Needed: 1 yard of cotton fabric (pre-washed), sewing machine, thread Supply Fee: $10 paid directly to the instructor unless you bring your own supplies (covers sewing machine use, thread, and limited selection of fabric).
