Adult Classes

Our adult sewing classes are designed to help you build the skills you need to tackle a wide variety of projects with ease. Whether your goal is to create your own clothing, make alterations, or household items, or just sew for fun.

We are dedicated to helping you succeed and will work with you every step of the way to ensure you feel confident and comfortable behind the machine. We’ve got you covered with sewing machines and equipment.

We recommend starting with our Learn To Sew Series and advancing into the Beginner Garment or Learn to Quilt Series classes. Learn more about our sewing classes for adults below and sign up for the one that best fits your skill level and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring my own machine?

We provide students with a sewing machine and equipment to use during class. But, you’re welcome to bring your own, if you’d like!

What class do I take first?

We strongly recommend that students dive into our Learn To Sew Series before joining our garment or quilting classes. Our LTS series is designed to teach the basics of sewing, including how to use a sewing machine, how to properly cut and pin fabric, and how to keep consistent seam allowances. These skills are essential for success in our other classes!
