What's new this month?
So the holidays have passed and we are getting right into things! Our classes at Eventbrite focus on adjusting commercial patterns, while over at TixTree I have Sewing For The Terrified and some Getting Better classes. If you prefer to register for classes from a partner you’ve heard of, the Textile Center has Sewing For The Terrified in February, and a Fit Clinic where I fit your garment, and you take it away to do the sewing.
Over at St Paul Adult Education, I have a seat or two remaining in their Cute Winter Capes class. Join us for a quick winter project packed with skills like adding insulation and working with thick fabrics. Mondays, Feb 10-27, 6-8pm
Keeping an eye on the future: My classes with St Paul Adult Education fill very quickly, so people like to know what’s upcoming. Watch SPPS or Stitch Masters social media for registration dates. Here’s what I have planned for April and May:
Simple Alterations, Mondays, April 7-21, 6-8pm
Fit Clinic (I fit, you sew) on April 23
Sewing with Knits, April 28-May 19, 6-8pm
