During this course, students will be introduced to sewing equipment, tools, threads, needles, and trims. They will learn all the basic techniques for hand sewing and machine sewing, stitches, and seam finishes, and they will become familiar with a professional vocabulary of sewing terms and definitions.

As part of the course, students will complete a series of practical exercises, compiling them into a comprehensive Stitch Album/Reference Book. This invaluable resource includes detailed references on various sewing elements such as boning, trims and tapes, fusible interfacings, thread, button attachment, seams and seam finishes, hems, darts, pleats, and bias tape, among others.

The final goal is to complete the Stitch Album/ Reference Book so you can keep it as a reference and go-to when constructing garments.

Enrolling in this course grants you access to our Virtual Classroom, where you can conveniently watch the video lessons at your own pace and revisit them as often as needed. This flexible online format is only a supplement—class sections are in person, to ensure you can learn sewing techniques and complete the course at a time and place that suits you best.

*Stitch Album/Reference Book included with the tuition.

Certification of completion included.
