Beginner Sewing Series: Class Two

Have you always wanted to learn how to sew, but felt unsure where to start—or what even to make first? Our three-week Beginner Sewing Series with Alex Mannle is a gentle, confidence-building introduction to using a sewing machine, simple patterns. and finishing three practical projects you’ll actually use: a scrunchie, a roll-up pillowcase, and a flat-bottom zipper pouch. No prior experience is required—just curiosity, a willingness to learn, and a couple of Saturday afternoons set aside for yourself

It runs on Saturday, February 14, February 21, and February 28 from 12 pm to 2 pm.

Class Two is all about building your skills and your confidence with fabric handling. You’ll sew a roll-up style pillowcase with fully finished seams, giving you lots of practice with pinning, ironing, and stitching in a straight line while learning what “finished” seams look and feel like in a real project. By the end, you’ll have a cozy, custom pillowcase and a much better feel for how fabric, pins, and the iron all work together.

Registration Note: In this series, students will be working with sewing machines, scissors, pins, irons, and other sharp or hot tools, so participants must be old enough to use them safely and responsibly; please use your best judgment when registering yourself or a young person.
