Ozarka College in Ash Flat, Arkansas will host a six-week series of Introduction to Sewing through the continuing education program. The classes will meet on Fridays, August 17 to September 21, from 9 AM – 11 AM in the Lecture Hall.

The classes will be led by Debra Gray. The class will explore the concepts of basic sewing skills needed for every household. Ms. Gray will teach students how to work a sewing machine, different needles and their use, and thread sizes. She will also cover how to sew a button on, hem a pair of jeans, and fix a broken zipper.

The cost is $60.00 for the six-week series, and pre-registration is required. A Senior Citizen discount applies for ages 60+ at $48.00. Each student will purchase a kit on their own that includes a seam ripper, straight pins, and scissors.
