Overview

Take your sewing to the next level with a sewing machine!

In this beginning class students will learn how to thread a sewing machine, wind and load a bobbin, replace a needle, and sew a straight and back stitch. Students will make a small project they can take home with them at the end of class.

No previous sewing experience needed! This class is VERY beginner friendly and suitable for ages 12 and up (ages 12-14 must be accompanied by a paying adult). All materials provided. Class size is limited to 4 participants so everyone will get lots of personal instruction and time with a machine!

Weds, May 13
6:30-8:30pm (Doors at 6:15, no admittance after 6:45)
@ The Depot Store: 4695 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, CA

After completing this class students will be well equipped for our two-week Apron Making class on May 20th & 27th!

Instructor Cirrus Wood is a self-taught artisan who enjoys coming up with and learning new techniques to make clothing more visually appealing and more durable. He runs the mending and tailoring business Dollars & Yen which came about after years of casually combining elements of both Japanese and American design in his own wardrobe.
