This course offering is intended for in person classes conducted at your store. Whether your customers are just starting their sewing journey, or are seasoned bag makers, our Making Bags Book Club is a great way to build their confidence in bag making. During this six-part club series, they'll learn the foundational knowledge of bag making, explore new materials, techniques, and make 5 skill-building projects. Sophisticated and stylish, this Hobo Bag was designed with minimal details to allow your customers to gradually expand their bag-making expertise but also to pair effortlessly with everything in your closet. With this project, build skills in fabric preparation, adding shape to the top edge of the bag, creating a base, assembling strap connectors, creating a shoulder strap, adding an interior slip pocket, installing an interior zipper pocket, assembling a bag with a zipper closure, and adding optional hardware and embellishments. The shaping along the top edge of the bag can be omitted for a tote bag silhouette instead.

Register participants in-store for classes either monthly or a one-time payment. Each participant is required to purchase a kit to participate in this program. Keep your participants informed of when the kits arrive, since we recommend participants cut out their pieces ahead of time to reserve class time for sewing only. Add your instructor's fee if necessary. Contact info@sallietomato.com to learn about Sallie Tomato’s Educator Program (launching April 2024) if you’re interested in hiring a certified instructor!
