Sewing Made Easy, Level 2: The Pattern
The expectations were set from day one, which I greatly appreciated. The instructor was consistently engaging, and weekly updated or advised the students on next courses they could take at LACC. The class atmosphere was welcoming, students supported each other as well. I can’t wait to take another course at LACC! Thank you -
Getting to Know YOUR Serger/Overlock Machine
Melissa, our instructor at Los Angeles City College (LACC) for this Serger Basics class, covered the basics to get started with a Serger machine. She explained the principle and steps to thread a Serger machine , and maintenance. She explained how a Serger machine is different from a sewing machine. She used a Husqvarna Viking Serger machine and if you're going to participate in this class using a different brand, then I suggest to at least know the steps on how to thread your Serger machine, since there are subtle differences on threading a brand of Serger machine from another. For example, I used a Brother 1034D machine for the class, and the procedure to thread the lower looper on my machine is different from that of her Viking serger machine. It also helps to use different color thread cone for each thread to help you with pinpointing/troubleshoot tensions on your serger stitches. She showed steps on how to troubleshoot common issues with a four thread Serger stitch and how to adjust tensions to remedy it. She showed how to adjust Differential feed to sew stretch fabric. Now I'm ready to take on more advanced Serger courses both online and in-person. -
Sewing Made Easy, Level 1: Beginning
Comfortable set-up, instructor was very informative and hands-on. I learned a lot as a result and signed up for the next course. -
Alterations 1: Hemming
I enjoyed the 5 class session - Hemming at LA City College (LACC). Our instructor Jenine taught different kinds of Hems from standard hem to blind hem, narrow hem, coverstich hem, and jeans hem. The ability to do these Hems are practical skills, which can come in handy when altering new clothes for yourself and family members. It gives you the ability to do hems for free which would cost about $ 85 at the Alteration shop. I plan to take a couple more sewing courses at LACC such as Pattern Making, and Upcycling: The Jeans Tote - on reusing old clothes for new life. I highly recommend taking sewing classes at LACC. -

Beginning Sewing
Overall I thought the workshop was fun and helpful. I’ve never used a sewing machine so I was worried I was going to have difficulties with the machine, but because they give you a breakdown for using the machine, it was so helpful. I was able to do my own projects after this workshop so I’m glad I tried this class. I do wish they had better prints for the bags but it’s not a big deal. -
