[Prerequisite: basic sewing machine knowledge.] When you look into your closet, what is that one item that you just can’t get rid of, but you never like how it fits you, so it just hangs there, and you keep it anyway? Well, here’s the moment you’ve been waiting for. Bring that item to class, and alter it to fit you! Bring in your machine, manual, and clothing you’d like to alter.
