Details

This is a 2 week course where you will learn how to sew a simple tote bag. A great project for total beginners!

The class includes the pattern and instructions (PDF and printed).

The class pattern is the Costa Tote Bag by Helen's Closet:
https://helensclosetpatterns.com/products/costa-tote-free

I will show you the steps needed to set up your machine, cut your fabric and get started sewing. Once you are underway you will be following the pattern instructions but I will help you with every step as needed.

Suitable for: Total beginners or anyone who wants to try out bag making. The pattern is very simple - the bag is lined so there is no seam finishing.

Level: Beginner, Intermediate

Instructions

You will need to bring:

  • Your sewing machine (unless you wish to borrow one from me)
  • A bobbin
  • Your machine manual (if you have it)
  • Fabric and notions (as advised by your pattern)

Note - I offer fabric kits if you would like to buy everything in one place - email me after booking (sewwithshellie@outlook.com) to request details.
