First Friday Talks

First Friday Talks

A monthly conversation around all the different aspects of sewing.

First Friday Talks at Studio Sessions.

From understanding fabric to pattern modifications or techniques, Catherine will cover everything nerdy about sewing!

The 1-hour talk/demo and 30-minute Q+A will allow you to learn tips and tricks to achieve the best results.

First Friday talks are not only a source of knowledge and skill development but also a way to inspire each other.
