This place is great! I signed up for a level 2 class after completing level 1.

  • Create three projects
  • Master patterns & machines
  • Small classes

Assembling clothes, like assembling a sandwich, requires a steady hand, careful layering, and willingness to trim off excess deli meat. Dress up deliciously with today’s Groupon: for $110, you get a six-week beginners' sewing class at The Make Den (a $220 value).

The needle-masters at The Make Den guide students’ first stitches through sewing fundamentals and vintage-inspired patterns. Pupils attend button-sized classes for three hours each week, learning to read patterns and steer sewing machines while fashioning three projects such as a dress, romper, headband, or bow tie. Throughout the six-week class, each student adds topstitching, edge stitching, french seams, and zippers to his or her quiver of quilting skills. Tenderfoot couturiers and their shoemaking elves also master Janome machines, seam-trimming sergers, and cover seamers. With individual attention for each student, The Make Den prevents accidental self-cocooning and ensures better sewing form. Located in DIY-centred Bloordale Village above 69 Vintage Collective, the sunny studio sports large windows that offer views of a verdant garden and cavorting flora.

My mom and I have talked about it for years that we would love to learn to sew as we have a lot of beautiful material we've gathered over the years. The Make Den was a great opportunity to do so as the instructors are fun and provide detailed instructions in order to get the best results but make the experience enjoyable that you're eager to learn more. They have two sites to which you can take the 4 week beginner class which can occur on various days and times throughout the week as well as variety of advanced courses that an individual can take following the beginner 4 week course to continue to enhance your learning, so I'd highly recommend taking the class if you have that 'Project Runway' thirst to get your inner designer out, lol!

I attended the Fundamentals sewing class at the Dundas Street East location and it was great. Nice space to work in. There were 4 of us in the class and each we were each given our own machine to use. I did not need to purchase fabric at the location as I had some already, but the other students did. I think we were all happy with all that we made in the class. Had a wonderful instructor (Kirk I think), really good instruction, friendly and knows his stuff I really like the Dundas St E location, having since been to the Sterling Road location in the West, Dundas is still more convenient for me and the lighting was much better. Unfortunately the East location is closing end of 2019. In the class we made, a headband, a drawstring bag and a pouch that was lined so it looked very professional. Learned to use an invisible zipper which I really wanted to know. Overall I love that these classes are available and like with the Den is doing.
