Event Overview

You've always wanted to sew, right? Well now's your chance to learn a few basics in this beginner's class. We'll have fun together in our no-judgment, seriously fun setting to create a one-of-a-kind tote. When someone says, “I like your bag.” You proudly reply with a smile, “Thanks! I made it!”


We’ll also practice threading our machine and making a bobbin if you would like. And then we'll move on to cutting, creating, and sewing, then showing and telling. You'll leave class more confident about using your machine and in your skills as a sewer. 


Another awesome thing is that Katharine, my co-teacher, will be providing beautiful fabric! So bring your machine, scissors, and a spirit ready to learn something new, and let's do this!

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

I have a mission! I want to bring people together to create and grow a collective of curious creatives and artists in arms who wish to share their passion for making and handcrafting beautiful things for the pure joy of it. I believe all art comes from the soul, the architect, and the hands and eyes are the builders for those inspired ideas. I myself am a bead and jewelry enthusiast, but I want to gather makers of all arts to inspire, support each other, and share. I'd love to build a creative community and bring together others who have a passion for making things. I also sing, play 5 instruments, and song write with my darling song sisters, The Warm Honeys, Sweet Water Remedy, and Starling in Denver and Boulder.

Ellen Pierce co-teaches the Songwriter Share Workshop. She is also the co-founder of Yoga in Your Park (YiP), coach trained as a therapist and performer, is one to spark your internal inspiration. When you are with her you feel like she is singing just for you - her songs are designed to trickle in, open you to the depths of who you really are and dissolve any lingering tensions. Ellen is known for her relentless idealism and joyful persistence. Ellen received a master's degree in Contemplative Psychotherapy (Naropa University) and was trained in the art of yoga at the Nosara Yoga Institute at the 500 hour level with extensive (700 hours) of training at Children's Hospital Colorado in Yoga Therapy. Two parts honey, one part sting, Ellen will inspire you to live into your next iteration with grace and ease.

Abby Lee is my assistant and co-teacher and will sometimes teach my jewelry classes. She says: Hi beautiful people! I'm Abby and I originate from the suburbs of Chicago, but traded the city lights for the mountain peaks! I am a bilingual Spanish special/general education teacher and an inspiring family and student advocate. I love working with all walks of life and growing every day in new experiences. I love to explore and play outdoors, cook, see live music, watch movies, practice yoga and spend time with my friends and new wonderful people I meet. I am so excited to create wonderful works of art with everyone!
