A Kind Reminder. We love having in store classes, and seeing the joy from our students as they learn create and hone their sewing skills. We do need to address an important point as we move into fall classes.
Although covid is no longer a pandemic, it is cold and flu season. Regardless of what type of sickness, if it can be transmitted to another person attendance at class is not permitted, even with a mask, until you are fully recovered. Don't worry, we will make sure that we help you get caught up so you don't miss out on your lesson.
No, this is not a harsh policy. We have staff, and customers that are immune compromised, caring for elderly ones or for other reasons cannot get sick. That Sewing Place is dedicated to being a safe place for everyone.
Thank you so much for your understanding and co-operation.

This six week project-based beginner-level class for adults will start the students building a solid foundation in the world of sewing. Never touched a sewing machine before? No problem!
Three projects have been selected to build a strong foundation, and key sewing skills. Students will learn safe machine operation, and techniques for independent sewing. We do change projects from time to time, however if this occurs the learning outcomes remain the same. There will be homework in between classes.
Current projects and learning outcomes:
- Pillowcase: Learn to sew long straight lines (yes, it is way harder than expected), and how to sew a french seam. This is an important technique you will use later for professionally finished garments.
- Pencil case or Toiletries Bag: Learn zipper installation, precision sewing in small spaces and adding a lining.
- PJ Pants: Pattern reading and material choice, introduction to fitting
if necessary, introduction to working with a serger (provided in class if you do not own one), and elastic installation.
Materials for all class projects are available at That Sewing Place, and come at a 15% discount with class. Please be sure to either come before class to select your materials, or speak with your teacher on the first day of class to learn appropriate material selection. Time for this is built into class.
Cost: $150 plus materials which are available at a 15% discount with class registration
