Enhance your sewing skills as you work on projects that go beyond the basics.

This programme is tailored to sewers who already have some experience using a sewing machine and are ready to handle more advanced projects. When registering, please indicate if you require the use of one of our sewing machines or are bringing your own.


Have you ever looked at a patchwork quilt and wondered how it was made?  This class will introduce you to the patchwork basics for making a 4-patch, a 9-patch, a 1/2 square triangle block and how to safely use a rotary cutter.  Sewing machines are available in Erin Branch to use, or you can bring your own. Please contact the Erin Branch if you wish to use one of our sewing machines. Materials will be provided.

Basic knowledge of sewing and sewing machine operation is required.

This programme is intended for Adults, Teens, and Tweens with adult assistance.
