Course Highlights
Machine Basics: Learn the anatomy of a sewing machine, how to thread it correctly, how to wind a bobbin, how to adjust thread tension, how to clean and maintain your machine, and how to troubleshoot common issues.
Materials Basics: Learn the difference between common fabrics, types of needles, types of machine “feet,” types of bobbins, and recommended tools, such as a seam ripper, marking tools, measuring tools, pins or clips, and more. We’ll cover the most recommended tools -- and what you can do without!
Sewing Techniques: Once your machine is properly threaded, we will begin by setting our stitch length and testing thread tension. Then, we will practice backstitching, sewing straight lines, curves, and 90-degree corners. We’ll apply these skills to move on to more advanced areas, such as sewing gathers and french seams, inserting zippers, and more.
