Hand Sewing & Mending Essentials
Class Description
Leave your sewing machine at home! This series of classes will focus on sewing by hand; no experience is necessary. In the first 2 classes, a pin cushion will be constructed where you will master hand stitches - running stitch, backstitch and slipstitch.
The last 3 classes will focus on repair: mending & patches (visible & invisible), sewing on buttons, hemming and simple garment repair…all by hand!
