Sewing Classes

We have recently started some sewing classes. On the first week we 'made friends with our sewing machine'.This involved learning how to thread it correctly,wind a bobbin,use various stitches and sew in a reasonably straight line.After this class we were chomping at the bit to make something using our new found skills.

Week 2 we made an envelope cushion cover.


Selecting fabric (all included in the fee)



Measure twice, cut once!


Sewing up!
