Learn to Sew with Esther at Hancock - The new 2009-10 season September Through May. (334)277-9095 email: esargent@bellsouth.net
Classes for students who have never sewn or who have some experience will have fun learning and discovering how easy it is to sew. You will learn how to use the right tools and techniques to achieve the look you want. You will work on easy projects such as pillow case and sleep/ lounge pants to more advance projects such as hooded jackets, dresses, skirts, decorative pillows and much more.
Each project is selected to build specific skills and at the same time create something exciting and worthwhile to have. The highlight at the end of the year is our Style Show in May 2010. Each student will have the opportunity to invite friends and family to an afternoon to celebrate their hard work and accomplishments.
