Unique to our North Philly NextFab location is our Textiles and Sewing Department, which houses advanced sewing, leatherworking, upholstery, and digital embroidery equipment. Our instructors will teach you the ins and outs of how to make your own sewing projects, how to use our tools and equipment, and instruct classes on how to construct leather belts, clothing, tufted cushions, and more. Once you’re certified on our equipment you can spread out on our shared work tables and create away! Explore how a monthly membership at NextFab can help advance your skills, explore new techniques, and introduce you to a new community of sewers, furniture makers, and fashion makers.
