Try your hand at sewing an easy tote bag! This beginner-friendly project is a great way to learn a new skill and try out the library's Janome 2030 QDC-B sewing machines. Plus, you'll end up with a super-handy tote bag!

Registration is required. Supplies will be provided. If you'd like to bring your own materials, these will be subject to approval by the instructor. The class is open to teens ages 13 to 18. 

Please note: The library’s sewing machines use a stop/start button and do not require the use of a foot pedal (though these can also be attached). To learn more about the library's sewing machines, check out our tutorial.
