Job Overview
About Us:
Moxie Collective is a creative fashion studio in Houston that helps students bring their design ideas to life through hands-on sewing, crochet, and fashion workshops. We teach everyone from beginners learning their first stitch to aspiring designers developing full collections.

We’re looking for an experienced Sewing & Pattern Instructor who loves teaching, fashion, and empowering others through creativity.

You’ll lead small group workshops that teach students how to sew garments from start to finish — including reading and cutting from patterns, fabric selection, fitting, and construction. You’ll guide beginners and intermediate students through each step of creating well-finished pieces while fostering a positive, patient, and inspiring studio environment.

Responsibilities

  • Teach students how to sew garments using commercial or drafted patterns.
  • Demonstrate fabric cutting, seam finishing, and garment assembly techniques.
  • Help students adjust fit and troubleshoot sewing issues.
  • Maintain a fun, safe, and creative learning atmosphere.
  • Prepare class materials and ensure sewing machines and tools are set up properly.
  • Offer one-on-one support during workshops.
  • Contribute to curriculum development for beginner and intermediate sewing classes.

Requirements

  • Weekends Required- Saturday + Sunday
  • 3+ years of experience sewing garments and working with patterns.
  • Experience teaching or assisting in sewing/fashion classes
  • Knowledge of machine sewing, serging, garment construction, and pattern reading.
  • Comfortable teaching students of all ages and skill levels.
  • Strong communication, organization, and time-management skills.
  • Friendly, patient, and passionate about helping others learn creative skills.
