This class is for those with little to no sewing experience. It will get you familiar with your sewing machine and teach you the basics. Each class will consist of working on a simple project while building on your knowledge. We will go over the mechanics of your sewing machine, sewing terminology, different fabrics and their usage, straight and zigzag stitches, turning, mitered corners, how to insert a zipper, and the correct way to take measurements. Many of you have a sewing machine sitting in your closet that you will need to bring. There is a limited number of machines available if you do not have your own. A basic supply list will be supplied by the instructor for each class project.

*  This class is sponsored by the Berea College Appalachian Fund, Folk Arts & Cultures Initiative Grant.
