Do you have a sewing machine you inherited or bought years ago but never opened? Maybe you're thinking of getting one? Here's your chance to learn the basics of a sewing machine: threading, tension, needles, thread, and basic maintenance. We'll address simple clothing repairs such as hemming and re-stitching a seam. Students will complete an easy craft project in class.

Notes:

Bring your own WORKING sewing machine. If you plan on purchasing a machine for class please email beaqcrafts@gmail.com for recommendations on machines and ones to avoid. Instructions for testing your sewing machine will be sent out two weeks prior to class. Needles, thread, scissors, and fabrics will be provided. For ages 18 and up. $15 materials fee payable to the instructor.
Fee: $54.00

Bea Quindlen

learned from her high school art teacher that success can come from the learning process rather than the “perfect finished product.” Those high school “discovery projects” led to a lifetime of crafting – and isn’t life a “discovery project?” Bea is happily retired after a 47-year career at a data company. She attended a MALT class way back in 1994 but not again until 2008! Since then, she has taken over 20 classes. In 2017, she made the switch from student to instructor, teaching a variety of introductory craft classes.
