Introduction to Sewing Basics In-Person
Receive training our Janome sewing machines and learn some fundamental basics about hand sewing and machine sewing. We will cover lots of helpful information about sewing like what cutting tools work best, what sewing notions can be helpful, what kinds of fabrics, needles and thread to use, and more. Everyone will also be trained on our Janome sewing machines and get to practice sewing using our scrap fabrics. Some scrap fabric and thread are available for use, but availability varies. Once users have gone through this free training session, then you will be able to use the sewing machine at your convenience for up to six hours per week when the Idea Studio is open.
