Maker Basics: Sewing
Want to bring your textile projects into reality? Learn the tools in this beginner-friendly sewing workshop.
Come join our monthly training session where you'll learn how to get started on the sewing machine. We’ll cover:
How to load bobbins with thread and load them into the machine
Threading the sewing machine and changing needles
Making basic stitches
How to interpret and make your own sewing patterns
With practical demos and examples, you’ll leave with a strong grasp of these tools and the confidence to take on your own textile projects.
⚠️ This workshop focuses on basic tools and techniques. The point is to get your hands on the tools so you can come back and use the workshop on your own. You will not complete your own project in this workshop.
⚠️ Some of the machinery in the FabLab may be dangerous, and all participants are required to sign a liability waiver before attending.
About FabLab Neukölln
The FabLab Neukölln is a collaboration powered by 42berlin and workish.berlin. It’s a maker space, creative workshop, and hardware lab, right here in Neukölln.
The 150sqm FabLab is split into two. A dirt lab with woodworking and metal working equipment, perfect for making dust and loud noises. Across the hall, you’ll find a clean lab equipped with a 3D printer, laser cutter, and textile lab where your electronics or more delicate projects can come to life.
Our space was created to provide fair access to equipment, training, and community for students, experienced makers, and garage inventors alike. What will you come up with? Apply for the next onboarding session.
