Confident Beginner: Blanket Stitch Coat, December 12 & 13
$265
This class will run Saturday, December 12 & Sunday, December 13, from 9am-4pm each day (or earlier if finished).
THE CLASS
Sew your own blanket stitch coat! In this workshop, we'll use both machine and hand sewing techniques to make a cozy and stylish Wren Jacket by Style Arc Patterns.
You'll leave with a finished garment, a ton of new skills, and the confidence to start working on your next sewing project.
This pattern is size-inclusive and is designed to fit chest measurements from 30.3" to 67.75".
NOTES:
✿ Although the Wren Jacket pattern does not have a collar, we will have an adjustable collar pattern that you can use to add a collar to your garment if you'd like.
✿ In class, we will only be adding blanket stitch details to the pockets and collar (there's not enough time in a weekend to blanket stitch the entire coat). You'll learn the techniques needed to complete the rest of the blanket stitching at home, if you choose.
✿ We will not be sewing the Wren Scarf pattern in class, but you'll get the pattern should you wish to make it later!
SKILL LEVEL
This class is intended for Confident Beginners - you should know how to thread a sewing machine, wind the bobbin, and do basic stitching. It's ok if you haven't sewn a garment or used a sewing pattern or serger before!
WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
This class will cover the following skills:
✿ Taking your own measurements & interpreting a size chart
✿ Using and adjusting a sewing pattern
✿ Understanding and sewing facings
✿ Sewing patch pockets (optional/time dependent)
✿ Hand blanket stitch (a decorative and functional stitch that can be used to embellish sewing projects)
✿ Serger basics (depending on fabric choice and time)
✿ Skills for sewing with wool (depending on fabric choice)
✿ Understitching, topstitching, and edgestitching
✿ Inserting sleeves
✿ Adding snaps and/or buttonholes (time dependent)
✿ And lots more!
WHAT'S INCLUDED
The sewing pattern is included in the cost of the class and will be printed for you when you arrive. You'll also receive the digital file (and instructions) so you can re-use the pattern as many times as you want in the future.
You will need to purchase fabric and notions in the shop before the class (and you should leave time to pre-wash your fabric). 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.
This class will be taught by Callyn.
✿ Please note that our shop will be open to the public during this class.
✿ This class is intended for adults ages 16 and up.

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! ❤️

All classes are held in person in our shop in St. Louis Park, MN.
