Classes at Sew Simple of Lynchburg
We've resumed some of our classes at Sew Simple. We continue to have a "Learn to Use a Sewing Machine" class almost every month due to popular demand. The Janome Embroidery Club will resume in 2024. We are also introducing a new sewing social time for wool applique, hand embroidery and other hand work.
See our calendar below for our current offerings.
Below the calendar are 4 other ways you can learn online from Amy, sometimes with a cameo appearance from Eric, our machine tech.
Calendar
An absolute beginner's sewing class, teaching the basic operation of your machine. You will learn how to wind a bobbin, thread and adjust your machine and make a simple project. We can provide a rental machine if you don't have one.
Discover the fun and freedom of quilting your own projects with free motion. Learn how to set up your machine, move your quilt and tackle tension issues while learning basic designs like loops, leaves, swirls, paisley and more.

These videos are often in the form of ongoing quilt-alongs in which you can purchase the kit and follow along to learn new designs and improve your skills. It's a fun, laid back learning environment.
