Sewing Skills Intermediate is a project-based class. Each week the instructors present a sewing/serger/quilting project, with demonstration, that the students may choose to do. Students may also work on projects of their own choosing. The class is designed to increase students' sewing skills and knowledge of sewing/serger machine operation.
A limited number of sewing machines, sergers, cutting mats, iron stations and quilter’s rulers are available in the classroom for student use. If you wish to use sergers, an introductory class in serging is a prerequisite. If you are bringing your own machine, please make sure it is in good worked order (with power cord and accessories). If you will be using a rotary cutter, please bring that also.
If you will be in class all day, you may want to bring a bag lunch and beverage.
