Beginning Sewing Boho Bag



Learn the basics of sewing while constructing a fashionable & functional bag.  This boho style bag can look casual like a book book bag/grocery sack, or it can feel chic like a purse, it's so versatile!  In this class you will make this reversible boho bag that you will finish & take home to show-off while you learn how to sew!  You will mainly use a straight stitch, but also learn the basics of using the different stitches on your sewing machine, as well as construction techniques including sewing on curves and attaching straps.  This class is tailored to building skills on general and garment sewing.
