Sew WHAT? Learning Sewing Basics with G
A button falls off. A hem comes undone. Your favorite shirt develops a tiny tear and suddenly it’s living in “the chair” instead of your closet.
We’re fixing that.
Join artist and designer Geraldo (“G”) for a fun, beginner-friendly morning of practical hand sewing, good music, snacks, conversation, and learning the kind of sewing basics everyone wishes they knew.
Together we’ll cover:
• sewing on buttons
• repairing simple tears
• basic hems
• unraveling buttonholes
• hook-and-eye and snap repair for garments
Social hour begins at 10:00 AM with light snacks and a hydration station. Class with G begins promptly at 10:30 AM.
No experience necessary. Seriously. None.
Bring:
• a garment needing simple repair
• your favorite scissors if you have them (we’ll have extras too)
• reading glasses if your eyes like to betray you during tiny tasks 😂
If your garment turns out to be too advanced for this beginner workshop, don’t worry — we’ll have fabric scraps available to practice on and will schedule future classes for trickier repairs and alterations. (Taking in garments will be covered in a separate future class.)
Basic sewing supplies including thread, needles, buttons, and fabric scraps will be provided.
Class Fee: $20
Open to ages 12 and up.
Please note: this is not a childcare event — attendees should be there to sew, learn, and participate.
Minimum class size: 5
Maximum class size: 12
If minimum enrollment is not met, participants will be offered either a refund or a rescheduled class date.
Space is limited, and honestly… your grandmother would probably be thrilled you finally learned this.
