Choose from Six Options

  • $24 for a beginner's sewing-basics class for one (a $49 value)
  • $45 for a beginner's sewing-basics class for two (a $98 value)
  • $29 for a screen-printing class for one (a $60 value)

  • $307 for a six-week Project Make course in sewing and design (a $615 value)
  • $25 for any class (up to a $50 value)

The 2- to 2.5-hour beginner's sewing-basics class illuminates essential terms and techniques, including basic stitches, sewing-machine etiquette, and straight versus curved lines. Students take home a project of their own creation at the end of the class. During the two-hour screen-printing class, students learn to print on shirts, paper, and fabrics using simple and eco-friendly ink-transfer methods.

Project Make is a six-week intensive course on all aspects of sewing and design. Held from 2 p.m.–6 p.m. on Sundays, classes begin with instruction in new skills and techniques that build upon the tasks of the previous weeks. Students are then given a new challenge—Road Rules-style—to complete before the next class. Students can use the remainder of the class time to get a jump-start on the project in the presence of a sewing mentor. Sewing basics is a prerequisite.

Materials and supplies for all classes are included.

Make and Made

In a culture more and more driven by technology and immediacy, Make and Made encourages students to slow down to learn the art of making things with your hands. Students outfit their paws with sewing needles, thread, and measuring tape as they use traditional skills to make modern projects, such as a clutch, drawstring pants, or a bow tie. Make and Made also cultivates up-and-coming fashionistas with fashion camp for kids aged 7 and older, where tykes learn to splice swatches and custom-craft their very own letterman jacket.

The Groupon Guide to: Promised Technology

Since the technological leaps of the Space Age, scientists have promised us numerous exciting, life-altering inventions that have yet to materialize. Here's why we're still waiting on these must-have contraptions:

Jetpacks: Aeronautical engineers are still unable to design a personal flight thruster that doesn't also burn the pilot's legs clean off.

Hoverboards: Anyone can glue a bunch of magnets to a wooden plank and ride the Earth's magnetic field, but no one has yet to sell the public on its appeal by featuring it in a movie.

Personal-Size Microwave: That’s what they were really trying to make at Chernobyl.

Love-Matching Computer: Scientists unveiled what seemed to be a breakthrough last year, but the machine kept matching every woman with, "this one really smart, lonely scientist who's… RIGHT BEHIND YOU!"

Why aren’t lazy scientists solving the nation’s hoverboard crisis?
