Class Fee: $100 per session
Instructor: Elizabeth Miles

This four-week class introduces adults to the art of sewing. Each student will select a project from an instructor- approved list to make during the class. Sewing samples, each student will practice all of these techniques: pinning and cutting skills, seam finishes, stay stitching, fused interfacing, a casing, a lapped zipper, and shaped seams. Class fee includes sample supplies; Elizabeth also brings basic sewing tools for your use during class. First class attendance is crucial. Approved projects include pull-on pants, pull-on skirts, aprons, a tote, a small purse, and a decorator pillow, with specific pattern recommendations.
