This is a true break—go relax and recharge! 1:30–3:30 PM ✂️ Beginner Sewing Project We'll put our new skills to work and complete a simple project together. 🧵 What About Sewing Machines? I have two sewing machines available for class use. Because this is a small class of up to 4 students, students may share a machine and rotate during portions of the class. If you would prefer to have your own machine to use throughout the class, you are welcome to bring your own beginner-friendly machine. Don't have a machine yet? No problem! If you'd like to purchase the same machine we'll be using in class, I recommend the Brother XR3774. It's a beginner-friendly mechanical machine with 37 built-in stitches, an automatic needle threader, drop-in bobbin, and wide table.

You can take the class first and decide afterward if sewing is something you'd like to pursue!
