Beginners can start here! Use your machine or one of my fully computerized sewing machines.
The goal of this class is to make you comfortable using a sewing machine. You will leave with enough knowledge to get you started on simple projects.
This is the class to introduce you to your machine and all its functions. Alicia will show you how to thread the machine and bobbin, how to use the features such as stitch patterns, stitch width and length, and other special functions of your machine.
**If you are bringing your child with you, just enroll yourself.

Open-Lab Style Class
An Open-Lab Style class means you choose your project, bring your pattern and supplies, and learn to Sew-it-All! Enroll in 1 class or all of them. This is a weekly recurring class and you will learn at your own pace with Alicia as you complete your projects.
Beginners and advanced students welcome in these classes, as everyone works on their own with guidance from Alicia. Come learn to sew or improve your skills in these hands-on classes. Make a project you’ll be proud of and take the guess-work out of sewing. You will also learn how to navigate pattern instructions. Students will learn machine basics, pattern reading, and basic sewing and finishing techniques. Enjoy a small class size and work at your own pace with personalized instruction. Machines are provided if you don’t have one.
Bringall project supplies and basic sewing kit with pins, scissors, thread etc. to the first class meeting. This is the right class for a beginner to take and Alicia strongly recommends working from a pattern. Please see the Supplies & Suggestions page for project ideas and a list of items needed for the first class.
Have a special project in mind - please contact Alicia ahead of the first class meeting to discuss it.
This class is available to students 14 and up.
