Here is a list of classes and descriptions. Please email me: chopshopcostumes@gmail.com for dates and times. If there is a project or class that you have in mind, please let me know!
Deus Ex Machina (God of the Machine): 2 hours $30
Learn the basics of the amazing sewing machine! Threading, oiling, changing needles, bobbins, tension, stitches, and more.
We will start with a simple project of a Voodoo doll pin cushion! Supplies provided.
(Bring in your own machine if you have one! It’s always better to learn on your personal machine. It’s like driving a standard car! Each one is different! Be sure to bring bobbins that fit your machine!)
Survival Sewing: 2 hours $30
Need to learn how to fix a hole in a garment? Sew on a button? Stop that underwire from sticking out of your bra? Do it all with a needle and thread!
(Bring a garment that needs fixing, or supplies will be provided.)
Hoodie Ninjas: 4 hours (2 Classes) $60
(Must be proficient in sewing on the machine, or have taken the Deus Ex Machina class)
Have a hoodie that is a little short in the arms, or the color is not your favorite but it fits well? Learn how to make a new custom one with your own unique adjustments (Cat ears? Bigger hood? Longer arms or torso? Fake Fur lining? Awesome fabric?)
Bring a hoodie that fits you pretty well (if you have one) and 2 ½ yards of your favorite fabric(s).
The Quicker Zipper Up-er! 2 hours $30 (should have sewing machine knowledge or have taken the Deus Ex Machina class)
Have a broken zipper or just want to learn how to sew one into a garment?
This class will unlock the secrets of this toothy device!
(Bring a garment with a broken zipper and a NEW zipper of the same length or longer. OR bring one 7” regular zipper and one 7” invisible zipper.)
Choose your own Adventure! 2 hours $30 (each additional hour is $10 more)
Bring in a project that you need help with and we will figure it out together!
* More classes will be added and available soon! This is just a basic menu to start with!
