This three-part class will occur from 7-8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 11, 18, and 25. All participants will receive material by mail prior to the start of the workshop to make their own pinball. No prior sewing experience is required but some familiarity with sewing or needlework would be helpful. Participants will need an internet connection, microphone, and webcam.
