Sewing

Learn the basics of sewing with a sewing machine.

Welcome to Machine Sewing

The intention of this guide is to orient you to the sewing machines available in the Idea Lab. 

Most of this information is intended for the beginner, so we do start at the very beginning. There are librarians in the Idea Lab who can help you practice what you see on these pages. Please feel free to chat with them about what you find and as always, ask for  help whenever you need it!
