Learn How to Sew a Tote Bag

November 2 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$50.00 - $100.00
Sew a lined tote bag with woven scraps! Bring your own fabric or choose from our selection. Basic sewing knowledge required. Age 12+.

What a wonderful hand-made (by you!) holiday gift for a loved one. In this three-hour class, you will learn to sew a lined tote bag with woven straps. We’ll show you how to turn any size woven fabric scraps into a fun tote bag. Bring your own fabric or choose from our selection. In this class, you will learn to cut on a cutting mat using a rotary cutter, and machine-sew a tote bag with handles, a pocket and lining.

While this class is beginner-friendly, the instructors require that students must be able to thread a machine, wind a bobbin, adjust stitch lengths/widths, sew straight and zigzag and back tack.

About the instructors, Jen Yasis & Anna Wilson: Jen and Anna are life-long sewers and between the two of them bring a wealth of experience with textiles to this class.
