[Nfb-krafters-korner] sewing techniques Need some help, please

Mon Nov 20 14:29:28 UTC 2017

Maria, this kind of thing will be better by phone, so I can hear feedback from the students as they work.  However, we can see if we can find a volunteer to take notes, maybe somebody who already does some sewing and is not taking the class.  Any takers?

HI.

am interested in the hand sewing and assembling a knitted garment by hand. email is better for me, as it’s hard to attend phone classes, but I would be happy with the notes if an email class isn’t possible.

Machine techniques would be similar a flat seam or hemming.  Buttons would be a separate class.  I could also teach a class on assembling a garment, knitted or fabric. Either hand sewing or machine sewing could include making a pillow case to put techniques to use.   If there is interest in any of these things, I will be in touch with Joyce for a schedule in January or February.  I am happy to do any of these classes for two or more people if we can find a schedule.
