Event Details

In episode 5, we invite our guest instructor, Greg, to guide you through the process of working with technical fabrics! You will learn tips working with a unique material as well as gain more confidence working with a sewing machine! At the end of this episode, everyone will leave with two unique handmade wallets and the skills to continue their sewing journey!


This is the perfect introduction to sewing for the outdoors enthusiast who wants to create their own bike bags, fix their gear, make a hammock, and so much more!
