ONLINE: Pattern Hacking with the Hello Stitch Garment Sewing Club and Beth Galvin - February

Hello Stitch Online Sewing Club Hours:

February 9 - 25 (6 Meetups)

Tuesdays & Thursdays from 7-8:30pm (PST)

Looking to build your skills and make new sewing friends? Join the Hello Stitch Garment Sewing Club! It's always more fun to sew together. This online class is part formal class instruction from our expert garment instructor, Beth Galvin, and part sewing social time sprinkled with helpful hints, tips, and (virtual) helping hands.

Get more mileage out of your existing sewing patterns. You can hack it!  A sewing pattern that you like is just the starting point to make it your own.

In February, we will learn how to:

• Move darts
• Change a neckline
• Modify or add openings & closures
• Design different sleeves
• Add ruffles
• Color block details. 

This month, the format of the Garment Sewing club will be a little bit different. Instead of everyone sewing a similar project together, techniques will be demonstrated and explained on Tuesdays. Then, on Thursdays, you can work on your own pattern modifications with help from Beth.

Skill level: ✂️✂️

You have a few projects under your belt. You aready know how to thread and use a sewing machine and you're ready to learn more advanced basics.

Supplies: 

To get the most out of this month's session, we recommend you choose a pattern that includes a bodice with darts and set-in sleeves (this can be a shirt or dress).  When you register for the club, you will also get a 15% off coupon good towards class supplies at Stonemountain & Daughter.
