This is a 4-week sewing course that will be held in our sewing area at Community on Thursday evenings with a maximum class size of 6 students.


While this is a beginners level class, students are required to have a basic understanding of how to use their sewing machine and be able to sew a straight line. The teacher will guide them through the process of making a dress (with pockets!) using the Collage Gather Dress Pattern by Matchy Matchy Sewing Club. The pattern price is included in the cost of the class and you will be able to download the file on your own after class. If you don't yet know how to use your machine, please sign up for our Beginners Sewing Course.


Fabric and other supplies are not included in the price of the course. **You are responsible for bringing your own sewing machine and supplies.** You will receive a supply list at least from the instructor at least five days before the course begins.


The instructor, Maddie Arena, works at Community as an alterations seamstress. She has been sewing for almost 20 years and has previously worked as a costume designer and technician. She loves nothing more than sharing her love of sewing to anyone she meets!
