On this workshop,improvers will learn the workings of the sewing machine; how to thread it up, wind a bobbin and stitch width, length and tension and learn to trouble shoot common problems. How to iron, press and finish a product.

We will learn how to pin up and cut simple pattern pieces from fabric. The workshop will result in a couple of products as well as general sewing skills.

If you have a sewing machine, its a good idea to bring your own, so your child can get used to it. Otherwise, I have a few machines here that can be used.
