Class Experience
For students who have completed Beginner 1, 2 and 3, this course will let you unleash your inner designer! You’ll practice the machine sewing skills taught in the previous classes and begin to apply those lessons to the construction of wearable garments. A Supplemental Kit and fabric will be provided.
Course Highlights:
- Measurements and fitting: Learn which measurements are utilized for selecting and preparing a garment pattern, and how to take proper measurements.
- Pattern prep: We’ll continue learning how to read patterns, what pattern markings mean and how to transfer them to our fabric, and how to blend sizes based on our measurements as needed
- Fabric Selection and Care: Mastering fabric choice is essential for creating wearable and high-quality garments. This course focuses on working with knit fabrics, offering insights into the various fabric types, their properties, and practical applications. You'll learn how to select the ideal fabric for your project, properly prepare it for cutting and sewing, and handle it to achieve professional results.
- Garment construction: This course offers step-by-step guidance to help you transform your body measurements into a perfectly fitted, wearable garment. Throughout the lessons, you'll learn the techniques needed to design and construct a custom T-shirt, combining both creativity and practical skills.
Upon completion of Beginner Sewing 4, students will have improved their machine sewing skills as well as learned core principles of garment construction with knit fabrics. We can’t wait to see where this journey takes you next - join us for any of our intermediate courses or workshops to explore a variety of fun, modern projects and build your skills with each one!

Dynamic and energetic with my teen girl. She loved the class.

Keep up the great work. Just flexibility to teach the studio on the same day of class. It is hard not dueling directly with someone on the studio fir any last minute issues.
