Beginning Sewing: Sew an Apron

Two sessions offered:

Sept 12, 2026            Sat 1:00 – 4:00 pm  

Nov 12, 2026            Thur 10:00 am – 1:00 pm

In this fun beginner’s class, you will gain experience tracing and cutting from a basic apron pattern, sewing with a consistent seam allowance and other fundamental sewing skills that are essential for progressing to more advanced projects. The goal of this one day workshop is for participants to leave with a completed apron and a personalized pattern to use in making other aprons. No prior sewing experience is necessary. We will be using the studio’s sewing machines.

If you would like to purchase a kit rather than buying and pretreating your own supplies, kits are available for $45 and contain all the materials you will need for the class project. To reserve a kit, please contact me at joy.kelley@gmail.com at least 2 weeks prior to class.
