Sew a Baseball Hat That's Just Your Style

Create your own stylin’ baseball cap! In this online class, you’ll cut, sew, and individualize a baseball cap and a trucker cap using a simple pattern and your own fabric and other embellishments. Only the most basic sewing skills are needed, such as threading your machine and sewing a seam. 

After this class, you’ll be able to use the same pattern to make more caps, or modify it for different sizes. You’ll also know what other kinds of materials and embellishments you could try – maybe denim? Upholstery samples? Or how about repurposing a worn-out coat?  

All sessions will be recorded. You can watch later if you miss a session, or want to review.
