Make the lesson your own

• Get help understanding a pattern, measuring, cutting, or sewing neat seams.
• Practice useful skills such as hemming, repairs, or adding a zipper.
• Work toward a bag, pillow, garment, stuffed animal, or handmade gift.

Bring a project you’d like help with, or choose one with Melanie. You’ll work at a pace that suits your experience, with space to ask questions and practice.

Your machine and materials

Have a sewing machine? Use your own so you can learn its features and feel more confident practicing between lessons. If you need a machine, Melanie can provide one; please let her know in advance so arrangements can be confirmed.

Materials for small projects are included in your first two lessons. After that, bring your own materials or pay a small fee to cover the cost of materials Melanie supplies.

Lessons at your home

Melanie currently teaches in students’ homes and is based in Lakewood, Colorado. Lessons are available for kids, teens, and adults, with projects chosen to suit students’ ages, experience, and interests. Some projects take more than one lesson; listing photos show project inspiration.
