Adults will explore sewing by using the Bernette B05 Academy Sewing Machine in the library's Innovation Lab as they create book pillows. Before using the machine, adults will be shown a demonstration of how to thread the machine and the bobbin. 

Finished book pillows will be 18" x 18", will include a handle to carry the pillow, and will have a sleeve sewn into the side which will hold a book. All supplies will be provided, and all fabric will be pre-cut so everyone has time to use the machines. 

During the registration window for this program, registration can be completed online below, by calling 309.590.6168, or by visiting the Help Desk on the library's second floor and registering in person.
