Step back in time and craft a charming vintage apron inspired by 1940s and 50s style in this hands-on sewing class. With step-by-step guidance, you’ll learn to cut, piece, and sew your own design; complete with ruffles, pockets, and personalized details while building practical skills and creative confidence. By the end, you’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind apron and the pride of having made it yourself in a supportive, community-centered environment.
Participants are encouraged to bring their own fabrics; however, Tacoma Art Museum will provide all necessary supplies.
Spots are limited to ensure hands-on guidance, secure your seat!
