The aim of the course is to gain confidence in using a sewing machine, how to troubleshoot any issues and understand it's functions.
Spend some time learning and trying out what your machine (or mine if you don't have one) can do.
The hope is that you will use functions on your machine and produce a beautiful and useful piece of work....stitching fabric together, finishing, hemming, buttonholes, zips the options are endless. It's all about building your confidence. Suitable for all ages and levels.
Please bring your sewing machine if you have one and if you have specific fabrics and ideas bring them along, otherwise Ruth will have plenty of patterns/fabrics etc to choose from.
