CLASS DETAILS
For every adult who wants to take your sewing skills to the next level!
You’ve learned the sewing basics and used your first pattern - now, let’s STREEEEEEEEEEETCH your sewing know-how even further. From soft t-shirts to flowy maxi skirts to your favorite sweats, stretchy knit fabrics are everywhere.
Sewing with knits is a whole separate skill set and Camp Fashionista can help you level up.
We’ll teach you how to set up your machine with the right kind of needle, the special tools and stitches knits require, and specialized cutting and sewing techniques that make knit projects so fabulous.
In this class, we will continue familiarizing ourselves with patterns and make a simple T-shirt with set-in sleeves—a skill used in so many modern garment designs.
Have a sewing machine collecting dust in the closet? Bring it in and we’ll get you up to speed so you can finally put it to use at home.
After completing this class series, you’ll be a fully-rounded sewist, ready to take on any project. The hardest part is starting, and you’ve already done that - let’s keep that momentum going!
