New Introduction to Machine Sewing Day Course Added!

Introduction to Machine Sewing

Saturday 23rd February 10:30 – 4:30pm 2013

Do you have a sewing machine?……would you like to get it out of the box? 🙂

If you would like some help in exploring your machine and mastering some of the basics of machine sewing then why not come along and join us for a day of fun and creativity!

We will learn the basics of how to thread the machine, wind bobbins, use all the dials and stitches and alter tension and stitch length. We will then look at simple seams, gathers and pleats and also introduce you to zips and buttonholes!

During the course of the day you will practise all your techniques by making a simple cushion cover with a zip or button fastening.

So why not come along and get to grips with your machine!……what will you make next??

Cost £60.00 (includes all materials for practise and cushion cover fabric, cushion pad, a light lunch and refreshments)
