Basic Sewing 101 Beginning Sewing



**This class is not intended for complete beginners. We STRONGLY recommend taking our Sewing Fundamentals class as a prerequisite before signing up for this course. 

We will complete a pair of elasticized PJ pants with pockets, along with a coordinating collared PJ shirt with button holes. This is a six week class that builds onto your basic sewing skills. You will learn how to read a pattern and become self-sufficient to work on your own projects. Carolyn PJ pattern is provided free with the class (other supply costs not included)

Project supplies will need to be purchased before the first week of class**. You will receive a 15% discount on any supplies for the class purchased in the store. 
**The approximated cost of supplies needed for this class will be around $80 with the 15% class discount

You are welcome to bring your own sewing machine in working condition with a button hole stitch, or use one of our Singer classroom machines. Please call the store at (910) 397-9399 or email us at franssewingcircle@gmail.com if you would like to reserve a classroom machine.
