Flexible Sewing Advanced Intermediate - Doll & Me Pajamas

In this class we will be making matching pajamas for the learner and their doll. Prior to beginning this class students should have basic knowledge of a sewing machine including threading the machine and sewing a straight seam. Because all machines are different, instructor can help with basic machine questions and problems but it is highly suggested that a parent or other assistant who knows the machine is available for hands on help if necessary.

Instructor will be posting daily videos demonstrating one step of the sewing pattern. Students are expected to complete the step on their own project and post progression photos and/or questions or problems about the given step. Learners are expected to comment on one another's photos with help and/or encouragement as they learn about the sewing process together.

Instructor will be available throughout the course to answer any questions and help problem solve in the classroom, through chat, and via personal video meetings. 

Please note that this is a leveled class. Each student is required to know how to accomplish the tasks in the previous levels before beginning classes of a higher level as I will no longer be covering those skills in higher level courses. If students need help learning a skill they have missed in a previous level class please message me and I can point you to a class where we teach that skill or set up a private lesson to make sure the skill is learned.
