Sewing Basics and Sailrite Machine Orientation

Are you interested in helping with the Canvas Committee in 2024, but have never used a sewing machine? This hands-on event will teach you the basics of sewing using a Sailrite sewing machine. Volunteers will be sharing personal machines so everyone will get to practice.

We will cover

  • How to thread the machine
  • Setting up the bobbin
  • Reviewing the different machine settings (diagonal vs straight, stitch length, etc)
  • Making some basic stitches, learn to turn a corner, and get used to the foot pedal and hand crank on the Sailrite.

Due to limited space, this event is intended for those that plan to assist with canvas repair this year. 

This event will be held in the Liberty Room, on the 3rd floor of the brick building along Key Highway. You'll receive an email on the day of the class with building entry instructions.

If the event is full, please add yourself to the waitlist - we will contact you if a spot opens up!
