Tote Bag for New Sewists
For students age 16+. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns!
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A TWO-SESSION CLASS:
Begin your project on day 1, creating pieced panels for your tote-to-be. Return on day 2 to assemble your tote bag.
Never sewn with a sewing machine? Maybe you have one, but aren't very comfortable with it yet? This class is a great way to get familiar with a sewing machine. The tote bag is very forgiving, so it makes a great first project.
In this class, you will learn:
- Threading your machine (if you don't have one, don't worry. We have plenty to choose from! Please phone ahead to reserve a machine for in-class use)
- Using a rotary cutter, ruler, and mat to cut fabric
- Seam allowances
- Pressing
- Basic application of sewing with a machine
- How to make a lined tote bag
No materials are needed for this class, as everything is included, but if you have your own:
- Fabric (Nothing stretchy or slippery. If you aren't sure, we have plenty!)
- Rotary cutter
- Cutting ruler
- Cutting mat
- Sewing machine in good working order with a fresh needle
- Thread
- Pressing mat and iron
- Fabric scissors
- Hand-sewing needles
- Any other standard notions such as straight pins, stitch ripper, etc.
