In this class, students will focus on the basics of hand-sewing and embroidery. We will practice stitchery techniques to make fabric accessories, design fabric art to applique, sew on buttons and add a mix of embellishments to our projects. The setting for this class encourages creativity as students build on these sewing skills to develop their own variations for projects and have fun sharing ideas with classmates.

All materials are provided. *Students may choose to bring some additional materials from home.

  • Please Note:  This class is planned as an in person class and we expect that it will run the full semester in person.  However, there is an ongoing need to adhere to guidance and safety practices in order to safely manage the COVID-19 situation.  The guidelines from state government and public health authorities change as time progresses and the CAC may need to make adjustments accordingly.  It is possible that this class will transition to an online format at some point during the semester.  In this case, tuition refunds will not be issued unless the CAC is unable to provide the same number of class sessions as initially planned either in person or in a remote format.
  • All materials provided, but students are welcome to bring materials from home if they wish.
