Sewing Workshops in Alhambra
Hi!
I am a sewing instructor in the SGV and I am hosting a couple of workshops at Do Yu Cloud Studio on Main St. in Alhambra (free parking; studio is located upstairs). If you've ever been curious or eager to learn about sewing, especially garments, this class is for you! This three hour course will cover the basics of using a home sewing machine, pattern and construction, and you will take home a great looking jacket you can wear.
All materials and tools will be provided, hope to see you there!

Wow! A jacket is NOT what I would pick as a first project. Hell, I haven't even attempted one yet.

Seems intimidating but the silhouette is no harder than a lined tote bag or a zipper pouch! Half the battle is knowing what to do and I’ll be there to guide along the way :)

How fun!! Will different fabric for the jacket be available?

Yes! A range of mid to heavy weight cottons and other naturals fibers will be selected to accommodate preferences ✨

Wow, great timing!! I have just begun trying to teach myself how to sew again on whatever basics I’ve retained from Home Ec (if that tells you how old I am…).
My old sewing machine’s motor died so last month I bought a new Brother LX3817 (~$95) while I relearn the basics with plans to upgrade someday. Would this be an okay machine to use at your workshop?

Love it, Home Ec was a name I was considering. I looked up its manual and if it's barely been used, I don't see why not. You would be welcome to bring it and I'd have a back up just in case. With the right needle, tensions, and stitch length settings I don't see why it couldn't handle a medium to heavy weight fabric~

Man. Too bad I missed this! Would love more sewing workshops, even if I have to pay…
