Beginning with a simple project such as a hot pad, pillow, or placemat. Lessons progress with repeating the use of the sewing machine and advancing as the student is able. The goal of this class is for each student to learn how to sew not what to sew. Therefore the student is given the choice of what they would like to sew.
Course Materials
I provide a sewing machine, however a goal is for the student to have their own and learn to sew on it.
All fabrics and notions are provided for the first 2 projects. Students do decide on the third project and must provide the fabric for that project.
Other small projects are provided for fabrics, batting, zippers, and such.

Syllabus
*Please note: it is important to make as informed a decision as possible when choosing your student's Community Resource classes. Most locations will allow a student to drop a class after one meeting, at no charge if it wasn't a good fit for the student, but not all. Some classes plan ahead based on the number that have signed up and have purchased materials, hired teachers, etc. and there might be a fee for class time or materials given to the student if the student drops after one or two meetings. The school cannot pay for classes that students do not complete, so choose wisely; if you do not take the class off of your student's schedule by the deadline, you may be asked to pay for the class time incurred prior to dropping the class.
