You are invited to join us for our newest online curriculum: Sew Beautiful Licensing! This collection of 20+ projects has something for everyone and for all sewing skill levels. The projects feature an assortment of fabrics, styles, and designs ranging from sweet, cute, and charming to timeless, traditional, and elegant. If you would like to teach sewing, or simply want to enhance your sewing skills, our licensings are created with you in mind. Take this sewing journey with us as we introduce you to new sewing methods; sewing with wovens, vinyls, knits, and terry cloth; and new sewing techniques, tips, and tricks that will last you a sewing lifetime.

Originally offered as an in-person licensing event, this course is now available to take online for the very first time with educators Kathy McMakin, Alicia Welcher, Connie Palmer, Barbara Moore, Karla Herrin, and Pam Mahshie. Students in this online course will receive step-by-step video tutorials and downloadable instructions/patterns for all 20+ projects, plus dozens of technique videos, machine embroidery designs that you can use on your licensing projects if desired (the embroidery is not required), business tips, and more. 

Here's how it works: During this course, there will be eight required assignments (four technique samples and four projects) that you will need to make and submit photos of through the site. Those assignments will be graded by our instructors, and upon course completion, you’ll receive your teacher's license. Once you have your license, you’ll co-own the copyright for all the written instructions/patterns for the projects included in this licensing. That means you’ll be able to copy the exclusive licensed materials to share with your students if you choose to teach, make the projects for sale without limit or just sew them for your own enjoyment. No matter what your reason is for joining us, this course is sure to take your sewing skills to new heights. After the course is over, you will still have access to all the videos and resources on the site – that access will not expire! 

The projects in every licensing collection are unique to that particular licensing, so no one else will have your projects other than the students who are licensed in the same curriculum. Whether you plan to teach, make items to sell or simply advance your own sewing skills and pleasure, this outstanding collection of projects and techniques provides everything you’re looking for. We love to sew, we love learning new things about sewing, and we especially love to share it all with you. We invite you to sign up today and join the fun!
