Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this shoemaking class:

Make your own summer espadrille shoes in this amazing new workshop.

In one lovely Sunday afternoon, you'll craft a custom pair of real shoes from start to finish, featuring your choice of custom colorful fabric uppers. You won't believe how easy it is.

In this workshop you will:

  • Cut, reinforce, and sew the lined fabric upper portion of the shoes on a sewing machine.
  • Learn how to sew the lined fabric uppers to the pre-made woven jute soles with a special hand-sewing stitch.
  • Make one shoe from start to finish & be well-prepared to finish up the second sandal on your own!

Materials:

Class fee includes all materials necessary to make a pair of espadrilles (woven soles, hand-sewing needle, interfacing, and cotton yarn) -- but does not include fabric so that students can select their choice of fabric. Fabric will be available for purchase during class with a 10% student discount.

Skill requirements:

This is not a learn-to-sew class; you must have basic sewing skills and be comfortable using a sewing machine. Our Sewing 101 (or equivalent) is a prerequisite to this workshop.

Note:
Price includes materials to make one pair of espadrilles and use of our BERNINA sewing machines, but does not include fabric.

Important:

Please reach out to [email protected] for your shoe size.
