Beginner Sewing Drop-In - Class Pass

Our Beginner Sewing Drop-In is for sewists who have the fundamentals down and are ready to keep building their skills. If you’ve completed our Adult Learn-to-Sew Program and have successfully made a garment, this is your space to grow, experiment, and finish projects you’re excited about.

Bring your own project and work at your own pace with an experienced instructor on hand to answer questions, troubleshoot, and help you take your sewing to the next level. With multiple sessions every week—including evenings and weekends—you can fit Drop-In into even the busiest schedule. Come when it works for you, skip when life gets hectic, and pick up right where you left off.

We run a minimum of three sessions a week, each 2.5 hours long with a maximum of 6 participants, so you’ll always get plenty of guidance and studio time. This program is best for those who already feel confident with a sewing machine, can read a pattern, and are working on projects that match their experience level.

How to purchase:

• You can purchase a 1-, 3-, or 6-session pass, giving you the flexibility to sew as often—or as occasionally—as you like. Passes are valid for approximately 6 months from purchase, so you can spread your sessions out or dive in and use them quickly. Just book your spot online before each visit, and we’ll have everything ready for you when you arrive.
