For the beginners! In this package, you will receive a mix of classes at a heavy discount (First three are one hour, one material consultation , and remaining five are sewing party length of 2 hours) with Sewing teacher Jez Roth to guide you in overcoming that fear of the sewing machine! We teach you how to set up and use a sewing machine, various stitches, troubleshooting, exercises for improving your grip over the sewing machine, hems and seam techniques, sewing for various fabric types, reading a pattern, how to cleanly cut fabric, and during the final four classes that vary in length depending on progress, students will create a custom Yukata to wear to Matsuris, conventions, and socials (All fabrics in creation of Yukata to be provided by student after planning and consultation with teacher end of 3rd lesson or during shopping trip.) Classes can be taken at a regular scheduled pace or when convenient with student. Take at your own pace!
