Want to learn how to sew?

Clothing Hospital is hosting clinics!

Thanks to Fabricker, I am back in business.  I will be teaching classes when the shop is closed ( Not to worry, fabric will still be available for purchase by students).

So, what are these clinics?

Clothing Hospital Clinics were developed for the person who wants to develop/improve upon their sewing skills but doesn’t have time to commit to a multi-week class. Classes are small and will take place over the course of one weekend. Day one will be devoted to learning new skills. Day two will involve putting them to use.  In addition to full weekend courses, there will be rounds offered at each level. Rounds are one day projects that will allow you apply what you learned in previous classes in addition to picking up new skills along the way.

You can view the Class Descriptions and Schedule on the Classes page.  For now, I have developed a few beginner and intermediate classes.  If you would like me to offer a class on a specific topic/project let me know.  If I can’t teach it I will point you in the direction of someone who will.
