Sewing 101: Tote Bag



Please read this description all the way through before registering.

Join Laura on Saturday, September 19th from 3:30pm to 5:30pm to learn to use a sewing machine. We will be creating a lined tote bag while getting comfortable using the machine.

Level: No Experience Necessary
In this class, Laura will have the machines threaded and fabric cut out so that all you have to do is focus on sewing. This class is designed for folks to learn how to work the machine, and to understand some basic order of operations for sewing.

Price: $70.00
The cost of the class includes:
- Three hours instruction in a small group setting
- Use of our classroom machines, tools, & space
- Half-Yard canvas or quilting cotton for tote body
- Half-Yard quilting cotton for lining
- 1.75 yards webbing for handles

Requirements:
This class does not require any prior sewing knowledge. Attendees will need to let Laura know what fabrics and materials are needed 24 hours in advance of class. Fabrics will be cut out for attendees ahead of time. You are welcome to bring your own sewing machine, but it needs to be in good working order. We will not be able to troubleshoot machine problems during class. Classroom machines are provided if you do not own one.

Time: Saturday, September 19th from 3:30pm - 5:30pm
