About The Workshop

These lessons are here to offer a supportive space for sewists of all experience levels to get hands-on guidance with their projects!

The Semi-private lessons offer a more affordable option to private lessons, providing in-person help when you need it! With a small group of up to four participants, you’ll get personalized support while learning alongside others:)

Bring your own sewing machine and a project you’re excited to work on, whether you’re looking for help getting started, feeling stuck on a particular step, or want to learn a technique that’s been giving you trouble.

You’ll have access to a serger, irons, and all the tools you need for measuring, marking, cutting, and sewing.

These sessions focus on garment/ project construction rather than pattern drafting and pattern alterations.

Please note this is a one day workshop from 10am - 1pm and/or from 2pm - 5pm.
4 spots are available for each session.

In our small-group setting, you can receive guidance on a variety of sewing skills, including:

✿ Understanding patterns and following sewing instructions
✿ Cutting and marking techniques
✿ Sewing fundamentals
✿ Using a serger
✿ Working with buttons, zippers and closures
✿ Seam and hem finishes
✿ Sewing machine setup and troubleshooting
