SATURDAY CLASS - Rope Sewing 101 Part 1 and Part 2 In One Day

SATURDAY CLASS -  Rope Sewing 101 Part 1 and Part 2 In One Day

It’s time to start your Rope Bowl Adventure at Nashua Sew and Vac!

We will be covering the content of two different rope sewing 101 classes in one session. 

Part 1 – Learning the Basics

You will learn the tips and techniques of making a basic rope coil bowl on your sewing machine. We will be creating a plain rope coil bowl with a bead and tassel finish. 

Part 2  Learning to Wrap

Build upon the techniques that you learned in the Part 1 session and learn how to add fabric wrapping to the sides and integrating a fabric circle to the bottom of your bowl. You can decide how little or how much you want to wrap.

The class will run from 10:30 – 3:30. Please feel free to bring a snack or lunch.
