Level 0: You’ve never touched a sewing machine before, or haven’t sewn in a long time.
Mending and fitting your own clothes is a great way to get into sewing. Hemming is a useful and approachable way to start. Bring a piece of clothing that you'd like to shorten and we'll get sewing.
If you're interested in learning but don't already have something you'd like hemmed, don't worry! We'll provide some garments you can choose from to learn and practice.
