Make Your Own Koozie

Using fleece, we will make a koozie for your most delicious beverage. Feel free to bring your own patches or fun trims to jazz up your can jacket and add your own creative touch! In this class, we will practice attaching binding, creating a pattern to fit a specific item, and placing a patch & pocket on our sewn item. Bring any fun trims you might already have, like rick rack, noso patches, fun rope scraps, etc.

Her degree led her to work in a range of cut and sew shops and design studios in Utah, where she honed her skills in soft good design and construction. She appreciates thoughtful design and slow craftsmanship, and loves helping others discover the satisfaction of making things by hand. When she's not at the sewing machine, you'll likely find Amelia skiing, spending time on the river, or working on a knitting project.
