[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Sewing?

[Ramona]

I do not think we have ever done an email class on sewing. I did once teach a class on making an apron to get people comfortable using a sewing machine. It seemed to work well and could be repeated by email. It does not require a commercial pattern. It does require that people know the basics of using a sewing machine and have one to use. I think it took about four classes.
