Class Adult Basic Sewing

JUNE MONDAY series meets June 1, 8, and 15, 2026 from 10:30 am - 1:30 pm.

AUGUST SATURDAY series meets August 8, 15, & 22, 2026 from 10:30 am - 1:30 pm.

Join Jean to learn the basics of sewing. Marietta's is supplying the sewing machines--you just need to bring your materials and basic sewing supplies. You will make a pillowcase, a 20-Minute Table Runner and a basic tote bag. Three 3-hour sessions. Please read all information for instructions and class supplies.  No experience necessary!

If you need Saturday sessions, be sure to check out our Greenville Adult Basic Sewing classes at We're in Stitches!

In an effort to keep classes affordable, we ask that you purchase all supplies and materials from Marietta's Quilt & Sew.  Before purchasing materials, check to make sure that the class minimum of 3 students has been met. Students are eligible for a 10% discount on supplies purchased for class; online customers should make a note at checkout listing name of class and which items apply to have the discount applied manually.

By signing up for a class, you agree to in-class photography, which we use on our social media to promote the MQS class experience to others.
