Join us for our monthly meetup, the Symphony BOM class with Piper and Megan. In this meetup, we will review the cutting and sewing instructions for this month's block. The workspace and sewing machines will be made available to those who wish to work in the shop and get help as needed as they dive into piecing this month's block.
Develop new skills and create a stunning quilt, all in a fun and supportive environment.
No class on May 18th due to staffing. Back to normal on the 25th!
A variety of beginner friendly projects will be done allowing kids to learn while they make.
Appropriate for ages 8+
All supplies are included including all notions needed and our sewing machines.
A class tailored to what your teen is interested in working on. Come with a project in mind or make a project plan with Aly's help.
Basic supplies included but if your teen wants a bigger project, additional supplies can be purchased with a 15% off class discount.
Aly is an enthusiastic apparel sewist who brings her creativity and love of sewing and working with new sewists to each workshop day.
Use our machines or bring your own if you have one you want to get familiar with. Our sewing studio is fully stocked with pins, fabric marking tools, scissors, measuring tape and rulers.
If you've completed the 1st class and with to continue taking classes, more project options will be available.
In this class we will focus on simple beginner projects to get the sewists comfortable with sewing. Some projects might be duplicated but for the more advanced or confident beginners or those not new to class, adjustments will be made to add a bit more challenge to the project.
An example of some projects this next month will be, coasters or mug rugs, simple tote bags, zipper pouches, fabric scrap bins, place mats.
10:00-12:30
Let's head into the new year with new projects starting with pants. We will be using a shop favorite, the Free Range Pant from Sew House Seven.
You will need the pattern, tracing paper & muslin or an inexpensive ( check our sale section ) quilting cotton.
To maximize time in class, you should plan on pre tracing out your pattern. Need measurement help or help with tracing out your pattern? Call me at the shop for a quick consult and I'll help you out!
Fabric for your finished pant can be selected on the first day of class as we won't be using that fabric right away.
Friday May 24th 5:30-7:30
It's like a book club because there will be books but all our books will be project based books. We'll pick a different project each month and discuss the how to make steps, get started on the project, have some snacks and talk about sewing. When we meet up the following month, we'll have a show and tell moment where we show our finished ( or nearly finished ) project, discuss wins and struggles of the project and pick our next project and/or book.
First book will be Wabi Sabi Sewing, a longtime store fave. In this first day, we will select our 1st project.
Book Club fee will be good towards store credit on book club day and can be used towards any supplies needed for the selected project.
The beauty of a zipper pouch project is there is something for every skill level in this project and almost no shortage of ways to take this simple beginner friendly project and make it as challenging as you want. Totally new sewist? Start with the most simple version. Ready for something beyond? Add slip pockets, change the shape, add side tabs, piece and quilt the outside and so on.
This class is beginner friendly.
Supplies needed
2 fat quarters ( OR 1/3 yard canvas and ONE fat quarter )
1 nylon zipper ( 9-14" )
fusible fleece ( about 1/3 yard )

The goal is to leave with a completed quilt top. If you need more time to complete your top, you are welcome to stay additional hours to continue working.
This adorable quilt mixes all the things I love in a quilt, simple shapes, adorable mini panels as the main focal point and animals. It's a great quilt for the animal loving adventurer of all ages. Make it for yourself as a great camping or RV quilt or make it to gift.
Quilt is beginner friendly. Bring your machine or use one of ours. Our maker's space is stocked with cutting mats, rulers and rotary cutters, straight pins and almost anything you need. Fabric supply list will be emailed to you upon sign up. Hope to see you in the shop, this will be a fun quilt!
And as always, there is a 15% discount for supplies and fabrics purchased for the workshop.
