$102.35 – $136.85
ONE-DAY WORKSHOP – January 25 , 2025 | 9 am – 4 pm
Own a serger but don’t know how to get the most out of it? Want to buy one to level up your sewing skills but are intimidated? This workshop will take you through everything you need to know; from how to thread the serger, different ways it can be used, and most importantly how to troubleshoot when it isn’t doing what you want it to.
Bring your questions, your projects you are stuck with, and leave with a folder of samples and notes that will help you whenever you run into serger troubles in the future and the confidence to tackle any serging situation.
Students are welcome to bring their own serger if they would prefer, otherwise we have some available.

THE INSTRUCTOR:
Raised in Germany under her grandmother’s sewing table, Cat took her first stitches around age 3, attempting to make pants for her Teddy. She learned to crochet and cross stitch around the same time as learning to read and write but with much more enthusiasm. She moved to Canada as an exchange student and stayed to complete her diploma in Fashion Design from the New Brunswick College of Craft & Design (NBCCD). After spending 3 years in England making theater costumes, Cat returned to Canada and has been sewing, teaching, and making art ever since.
