Sewing
Classes
Throughout
the world sewing classes
and sewing clubs are
becoming more popular than ever before. Years
earlier, young girls would learn sewing as a life skill from their
mothers and
grandmothers, or in home economics classes. Many
schools have long since dropped home economics
from the list of
required classes, so a couple of generations simply never learned how
to
sew. These days,
you'll find sewing
classes filled with women who never learned to sew, women who did some
sewing
years ago but forgot how, children and teens looking for something to
do and a
growing number of men.
Most
students enter classes knowing absolutely nothing about
sewing with a machine or creating a project from a pattern. They need to learn basic
hand and machine
sewing skills, understand how the machine works, learn how to operate
the
sewing machine safely and learn how to read and understand a commercial
pattern. Therefore sewing classes are frequently structured around
making a
particular project, learning a certain sewing technique, or utilizing a
specific function of a sewing machine.
Sewing
classes introduce skills to students who are
interested in fashion design and dress making so that they can produce
garments
that will look both professional and original.
Students
are encouraged to try different projects in degree of
difficulty at their own pace by combining pieces from different
patterns or choose classic simple lines and embellish with
trims to suit their
unique personality. Notably small classes insure highly personalized,
individualized instruction.
Students
in sewing classes also
learn about different
fabrics, seams, the function of a machine, reaction to fabrics, and
pattern
making. Again, they are guided at their own pace through learning the
basics of
a pattern and how to work a sewing machine. Students
will learn how to thread machine and
bobbins, pattern
alterations, types of fabric and designs, over-lock machine operations
and
basic sewing items.
Sewing
classes are recommended for individuals who are
highly interested in fashion and dress-making to develop their
confidence in
the trade, as well as those looking for beginner sewing classes just to
brush
up.
If
you are wondering where you can find sewing
classes,
various types of sewing
classes are taught throughout the year in many
different forms, with well-qualified sewing instructors.
The
Home Sewing Association offers a searchable database of
sewing educators that have completed the Trained Sewing Educator
program.
Formal sewing classes
can be found throughout the year at
many local fabric stores and most sewing machine stores.
Students are introduced to
their machine, sew
samples using different presser feet that come with the machine as well
as
extra accessory feet, and learn which stitches, threads, and needles
are
appropriate for particular fabric types and sewing functions.
Sewing
and design classes can be found at colleges, art
schools, and community colleges that have fashion programs. Sometimes local adult
education or park and
recreation programs offer sewing and craft classes. Parents who want to
teach
sewing school for home, or teach garment sewing for teens will find
these very
beneficial.
The
Internet also has information about a variety of sewing
classes, some of which you can take on-line.
Simply type the term
“sewing
classes” in the search box of the search
engine. There are sewing classes,
websites, ebooks, patterns, notions, sewing machines, and a list of
techniques
a mile long. Online
sewing classes are usually
in short segments for easy digestion.
Sewing
classes are available and taught by knowledgeable,
well-trained teaching staff. As students progress, they are guided
through
projects of increasing difficulty and new sewing challenges. Many of these students go
out to open their
own revenue-generating sewing related business or procure jobs in some
of the
companies which make clothes.
Sewing
classes are also a time of fun and creativity where
students enjoy each others companionship under the guidance of a
professional sewing
instructor. You
learn a lot about
sewing, fabric and are positively charged about creating your own
designs after
classes end.
Well-organized,
interesting, and fun, the world is noticing
how sewing classes
are enhancing lives, and filling-up with women and
men who
want to enrich their personal and professional growth.
From
kids, to generation x'ers, professional women, to men sewing classes are
full with waiting lists.
