Sewing Skills Series: Basic Alterations with Mel

In this class, Mel will teach you how to execute basic alterations on your finished garments. Need to take in on the waist on pants? Wanna learn how to install darts to help make your garments fit better? This is the class for you! Please be sure to bring the garment you wish to alter.

If you need to use one of our sewing machines in the Art Room please add on the Machine Use fee before check out.

This is appropriate for folks who are comfortable with basic to intermediate machine sewing. You can bring your own sewing maching or use one of ours for a small upcharge in ticket price. All fabric and notions will be provided. PLEASE BRING YOUR OWN FABIC SHEARS.
