Comfortable, customizable, and completely wearable. Pajama pants are the perfect beginner garment project. In this hands-on class, go from a pile of fabric to a finished, wearable pair of pants in a single session. We'll walk through every step together: laying out and cutting your fabric, pinning and sewing the seams, finishing your hems, and inserting elastic into your waistband. Come learn the basics of garment construction and leave with comfy pants and the skills to sew more!

    Danielle Priest

    With nearly two decades as an educator under her belt, it's clear Danielle loves teaching. She's shared her expertise through workshops on everything from beginner sewing to operating specialty machines, pattern drafting, textile selection, and intricate embroidery techniques. But Danielle's true creative joy lies in bringing beloved Star Wars characters to life through meticulously crafted costumes. She's competed across the country, always challenging herself to top her previous creations. And just when you think she can't possibly cram more onto her list, she'll invariably get distracted by a new galactic passion project.

    This class must have two students to run. If the class is cancelled due to lack of attendance you will be issued a full refund. 

    Per Nova Labs policy, there is no refund if the student is non-compliant with the safety dress requirement or more than 15 minutes late for class.
