New Owners 1: Sewing Machine Introduction



New Owner's 1 provides an overview of your machine's basic sewing functions, including set up and threading, basic stitching, and how to adjust stitch settings. We will review care of your new machine, and discuss best practices while sewing. This class is all about getting you familiar with your new tool (because a sewing machine is just a power tool with a needle and thread)!

Whether you’re interested in quilting, garment making, or just learning for fun, this class is the perfect starting point for your sewing journey.

Prior to class:


Please familiarize yourself with your machine.

Review the owner's manual/user's guide.
