Sewing

I have been sewing for over 30 years. I absolutely love sewing and want to share sewing with all who are interested. I have taught quilting, sewing clothing, sewing home decorating goods, and more. I am interested in sharing this art with beginners as well as experienced sewers who want to learn a new skill. Come join the sewing community! Let your inner creativity come out with fabric!

Have you purchased a sewing pattern and gotten stuck before you even opened the envelope? This class will help take the mystery out of pattern envelopes, instruction pages, cutting layouts, and tissue paper pattern pieces. We will review how to choose the correct size for your body measurements, select fabric type and quantity, decipher pattern markings, and review glossary terms. Bring a pattern and your questions, and you'll soon be able to get started on your next project.

You’ve come to the right place if you want to learn how to sew or enhance your sewing skills. 

Do you need help in real time? 

I provide sewing lessons for you online.

Level 1 Start: For someone new to Sewing, who has never sewn before nor used a sewing machine, your first lesson will be learning your sewing machine. Threading, bobbin, stitches, functions. You will also learn how to sew on scrap fabric. One hour.

Level 2 Start: A sewing beginner, someone who has sewn before but not much. If you already possess the skills and level one, then you start at level two. In this session you will learn to make a pillowcase or a tote bag. You will get more comfortable with the machine, controlling the speed, stitching within a seam allowance, and stitching a straight line. This could take 1 to 2 sewing hours.

Level 3 Start: Student possesses the abilities and skills in level one and two. At level three, you have already sewn something basic like a pillow, pillowcase or tote bag. At this level I allow you to choose your pattern for what you’d like to make. Pattern choice will be an "easy to sew" pattern of something that you like to make. Depending on the pattern, this could take 2 to 4 sewing sessions.

Level four. You’re really sewing now! This is where you will choose a more difficult pattern with something specific that you’d like to learn. It will take 2 to 5 sewing sessions depending on pattern difficulty.

I like this sewing very much, I share a lace trim, fabric, embroidery and beads accessories online supplier www.lacefabricshop.com

Easy to work with. Took her time with me as a beginner to sewing 

Sonya is very patient and knowledgeable.  I look forward to our next class! 

Sonya was patient, clear, knowledgeable and descriptive of the machine during our lesson. It was much more accessible than I thought it would be as an online class. Highly recommended teacher!

Sonya is so patient and thorough. Really like learning from her :)

Sonia was very kind as she talked me through my sewing issues that I was having with my new machine. I would happily book another lesson if I had more problems.

Sonya was great. She very patient with my daughter. I just believe sewing lessons in person would be more beneficial. 

I’m glad I took this class with Sonya! She was informative, kind, and patient. I’ve learned new tricks that will help me advance in this skill set. 

Sonya was great with my teenager. She was patient, encouraging and gave praise where necessary. She was very thorough and gave clear directions. We look forward to more projects in the future. 

It took about 15 minutes to get online. The Take Lesson platform gave us problems. Once we were on Sonya did well.  She was knowledgeable and patient with my daughter. 

Good lesson. Sonya is patience with my beginner's skills and takes her time with me.  

Sonya was an excellent teacher and I learned so much from just my first lesson as a beginner. She is patient, very knowledgeable, and sets you up for success even after the class has ended. Highly recommend taking her lessons :) 

Very informative, and patient teacher. I have been able to complete several outfits thanks to her understanding nature. I I’m enjoying my classes in the comfort of home. I am signing up for more classes. Thank you Sonya.
