Camp details
If you've never used a sewing machine, then this is the camp for you!
This is a pre-requisite for all other camps on the sewing machine.
In this camp, you will learn to:
thread the machine
wind a bobbin
make a rolled hem on your baby blanket while you get used to a 5/8" seam allowance
learn to pin correctly and sew in the round on pillowcases
make a casing for your drawstring bag ( this is the same way you make an elastic waist)
These skills lay a strong foundation for you to build on with future sewing projects. In this camp, you will complete all Level 1 beginning sewing classes and 3 projects. On Free Sew Friday let your imagination guide you while you dig in to the scrap bin of fabulous fabrics to create your choice of several small projects that you designed.
