Class Experience

Sew & Steady Level 2: Pullover Hoodie


This stylish hoodie is the perfect project to kick your skills up a notch. You will fine-tune your existing sewing skills by working with knit fabrics, stretch & jersey needles and twin needles. You will learn to use a pattern-generating program using your very own body measurements to create a pattern that fits you to a TEE!


Included in your class is the construction of your hoodie, 9 hours of enthusiastic and knowledgeable instruction, use of sewing machines, tools, and notions. PRIOR SEWING MACHINE EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED FOR THIS CLASS.


You will need 2 yards of fabric. Suitable fabrics are: jersey knit, sweater knit, interlock, liverpool, performance knits (lycra, spandex, etc). Stretch should be at least 30% (holding 4" of the fabric, it should stretch to at least 5.5")

"Sew & Steady" is a relaxed pace series in which we take it slowly, dive into the zen of sewing, and enjoy the satisfaction of completing a project within your class time-- no homework!

Our experienced and enthusiastic instructors will guide you through each step of the project, sewing right along with you to show you in real time how to tackle your sewing.  You will also learn how to troubleshoot any sewing problems you might encounter either with the project itself, or with your sewing machine. This way you never feel like you are going it alone!
