Global Sewing Event Returns: Learn to Sew with SINGER
SINGER, the iconic sewing brand with a 175-year legacy, is back to spark creativity with its second annual Teach the World to Sew Day. The free global event lands on Saturday, September 19th, and aims to welcome both newbies and seasoned makers to the joys of sewing.
This year, folks can join beginner-friendly classes in person at participating SINGER dealers and select Michaels stores. There’s also a virtual option through the ‘Learn with Michaels’ portal.
The project for this year? A practical sunglasses case. It’s a perfect starter—simple, useful, and gives that satisfying feeling of finishing something with your own hands.
Empowering Creativity and Craftsmanship
Teach the World to Sew Day isn’t just another event; it’s a nod to creativity and the enduring art of sewing. Last year, over 5,000 participants from 17 countries showed up to learn and make something together.
This time around, SINGER is mixing things up with a blend of in-person and virtual classes. That means more people can join in, no matter where they are.
Blended Learning: In-Store and Virtual Classes
