This class will run Sunday, July 12, from 9am-3pm (or earlier if finished).

THE CLASS

Sew a simple - yet stylish - pillow cover for your home! This class will offer several different options of size and special details, so you can choose your difficulty level and reflect your personal style. Choose between throw and bed sizes, add an optional ruffle, and even differentiate between down and polyester inserts to get a functional and stylish product you can make again and again in different fabrics.

You'll leave with at least one finished pillowcase (you may have time to make more) a ton of new skills, and the confidence to start working on your next project.

We will be sewing on both a sewing machine and a serger. You will learn techniques for sewing on both machines.

SKILL LEVEL

This class is intended for Absolute Beginners - it's 100% okay if you've never touched a sewing machine before! We'll get you started from square one.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

This class will cover the following skills:

✿ Threading a sewing machine and stitching
✿ Basic machine troubleshooting
✿ A variety of construction techniques
✿ Measuring and pressing
✿ Gathering and adding a ruffle (optional)
✿ Serger basics
✿ Hemming

✿ And lots more!

WHAT'S INCLUDED
All instructions and measurements are included (this project does not require a sewing pattern).

You will need to purchase fabric and thread in the shop before the class. Come by and we'll help you pick out something suitable that matches your style!

If you have your own sewing machine and want to use it, feel free to bring it with you (just make sure you have all the components including bobbins, foot pedal, etc). If you prefer, you can use one of our studio machines. We will also provide sergers.

This class will be taught by Sarah.

-Please note that our shop will be open to the public during this class.
-This class is intended for adults ages 16 and up.

Refund & Cancellation Policy

Classes and private lessons are non-refundable.

As a small business, we rely on sewing classes as part of our financial strategy. Our classes often fill up far in advance, and it can be difficult to fill a spot on short notice.

Of course we understand that things come up (even last minute!), so we ask that you read and agree to this policy before signing up for a class.

If you are no longer able to attend a class you signed up for, please email us at hi@openstudiosewing.com to let us know. If your class has a waitlist, we will do our best to fill your spot. If we are able to fill it before the class date, we'll issue you a refund in the form of store credit or to your original payment method. Store credit can be used for retail purchases or for future classes, and does not expire.

If we're not able to fill your spot, we will not be able to issue a refund.

If you are in a multi-session class and need to miss a day, you will not be able to make up the missed class. You're welcome to work on your project at home or book studio time to work on your own during shop open hours, or a private lesson (depending on availability) to get support to catch up.

Thanks for understanding and supporting our shop! ❤️
