Online sewing class -Beginners sewing class - Learn to sew a Cushion Cover

Date/Time
Date - 29/09/2021
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

**This workshop will be delivered virtually via the online video conferencing platform, Zoom. If you don’t already have a Zoom account, it is easy to set one up for free (basic package) via their website. Prior to the workshop I would email you the workshop joining instructions. Zoom allows 2 way communication between all participants and myself, allowing questions, feedback, demonstrations and conversation! It’s good fun and a great way to socialise with other people whilst sewing, during the pandemic restrictions.**

For this online class, you need to be able to wind your own bobbin and thread your machine up in order to start the class. If you would like guidance with this, please get in touch about a one to one session prior to the class. As there will be up to 6 people all with different machines, it will be challenging to help with this fully during the group class.

Learn to sew an envelope cushion cover

Duration – 2 hours

Join me and get to grips with sewing machine basics. Learn how to sew basic machine stitches (straight stitch, back stitch, zig zag) and simple trouble shooting tips. Put these skills into practice by making an envelope cushion cover.

This would be suitable for:
– those who are already familiar with the very basics of their machine (but by no means an expert) and would like to learn how to sew a simple project
– those who would like to increase their confidence with basic stitches
– those who have sewn in the past and would like a refresher
– those who would like to sew a project in a ‘social setting’

This class will hopefully give you the confidence that you need to go on and make some further more challenging projects – or if not, hundreds of cushion covers!!!!

Fabric – any non stretchy fabric e.g. cotton/polycotton/upholstery weight fabric.

Lorna says:

“A cushion cover is the perfect project for either a complete beginner sewist or someone looking to refresh their skills. Learn the basic stitches straight lines and turning corners – core skills for progressing onto more challenging projects. Gain confidence using a sewing machine – that’s what it’s all about. You can also really change the look and feel of a room quite quickly by refreshing cushion covers so come along and learn the skills and then get making!!”
