Sew Inclusive is a fat and plus size ONLY space where you learn to sew, alter or pattern with your own garments from home. Regardless of your experience, we discuss how to make, tailor or trouble shoot plus size clothing to fit YOUR body. With DIY solutions, we hope to give you the skills and confidence you need to shape the wardrobe you deserve. We understand how bleak fashion and self expression can be for people of size, so we welcome you to destroy the rule book and redefine plus size fashion with us.

-A group lesson and discussion followed by open sewing time
-Personalized instruction on your projects from experienced fat sewers and designers
-One on one assistance from the instructors as you work
