Needle and thread
Learn the basics of the timeless craft of sewing. We’ll start with a lesson on the necessary sewing tools and a general overview of using a pattern and selecting fabric types and hand sewing. You will practice basic hand stitching and try several different stiches. You will select a project to make which may be a simple pillow, stuffed animal or maybe a small doll. You will hand sew and stuff your election as well as learn to sew on buttons. Making scrunches has been popular and could be an option. Beginner students from previous classes are encouraged to return for more practice and projects. Materials will be provided for the first project. All sewing tools will be provided in class i.e. scissors, thread, needles, pins, some fabric and stuffing.
