Please contact Robbie Berg robbie.berg@yahoo.com if you have questions about the which course you should enroll in.

Join Robbie and Michelle for an advanced course on Sewing and Quilting. The course is a follow up course designed to further your sewing skills based on what was learned in Beginning Sewing and Quilting Essentials on February 16th.

Take your sewing skills to the next level. This class teaches how to apply sewing skills to small projects. Each month Michelle and Robbie will design a simple project to help you practice your skills and create a useful item to keep or gift using  sewing and/or quilting basics.

Students will be asked to choose from 3 different projects (by email) before the class begins. They will have the choice of cutting their own peices before the class, or purchasing a Kit from the instructors for $20 before the class begins.

Sewing Machines:

Sewing machines are available at the center, but if you have your own machine you are encouraged to bring it along with you to class. Robbie and Michelle have extensive knowledge of most machines, and it would be wonderful if you were to learn to use your personal sewing machine. You can contact robbie here if you have questions about your machine, or the machines at the center: robbie.berg@yahoo.com

Fabric scraps, batting, thread and basic sewing supplies are provided for the first class. However, if you have a preferred thread, scissors, and other sewing notions, please bring them.  If using your own machine remember to bring any accessories needed like extra bobbins and presser feet. Also remember your power cord, foot pedal, operating manual. 

Because we’ll be working through the lunch hour, please bring food and beverages to keep your strength up.

About Robbie Berg: Fabric and design have been a life-long love for Robbie.
