Sip and Sew: Adult Sewing Classes

Join us for our ongoing adult sewing classes and learn the skills you need to become a maker today! Beginners and returning students are always welcome at The Fashion Class where we make sewing and design easy and fun for everyone. 

Class will go over things like sewing machine basics: threading, bobbins, and using a sewing machine. We'll practice different stitches, go over technical things like tension and backstitching, and explain all of those tiny accessories that come with a sewing machine.

 Returning students may choose a project to start and complete during class; such as an infinity scarf, tote bag, shrug, or pillow. 

You'll leave class with the knowledge and confidence to sew at home or join us again to continue your creative journey. 

We provide all of the supplies, all you have to do is bring your fabulous self (and BYOB should you so decide). Our class sizes are small (up to 8 students) so that each person has the space and attention they need to design, create, and finish their project!
