Relaxed small class. Beth gave step by step instructions. Materials provided are high quality and plenty choice. Snacks, tea and coffee provided and we had 40 mins for lunch. Parking at back of building. I had some (user) issues which Beth sorted easily and was very patient. Would highly recommend.

Anne was absolutely wonderful! A very friendly informal atmosphere and we felt like we could ask questions and get lots of help. Will definitely book another class!

Such a fun intro to sewing! The instructor was super patient and made everything easy to follow. I actually finished a project I’m proud of, which I didn’t think would happen on day one. Great vibes, small class size, and perfect for total beginners. Highly recommend!

Learning how to sew with Ali was such a treat! She was patient and thoughtful. Ali walked us through each step to help build our confidence with the sewing machine. It was such a relaxed and easy environment to learn something new.

This was an excellent class for a complete beginner. I learned how to set up a sewing machine, do some simple stitching and we even made an item to take home. The class was small, only 6 of us, and the teacher, Kerry, was excellent - very patient and encouraging. Thank you.

Kerri was fantastic at teaching the group everything from setting up the sewing machine to actually sewing our own cushion cover. Having had no knowledge at all about how to use a sewing machine I now feel confident that I can begin to start doing the projects I have wanted to do! I’m sure I will be back to continue to learn and advance my sewing skills!
