Had a fantastic time being taught by Kerry in Foundation Class. Taught in small groups and the pacing was spot on. As stated, I brought my own sewing machine and now feel fully confident using this machine to make my own projects after direction under Kerrys tutilage. Begining with the basics, such as learning how spool and thread the machine, we were also taught about the different settings on the machines and practiced stitches before sewing a pillow cushion cover. Felt so accomplished and would definetely sign uo for the follow up intermediate and garments making classes.

Such a wonderful beginner class! Kerry our teacher went at a great easy pace, so kind, helpful and patient. The cushion cover is a great first project. I liked the way we watched step by step what we were doing first, then had a go, with lots of help on hand if needed.

What a great class for a beginner. Step by step simple guidance at a good pace. Teacher was great at answering questions and was very reassuring and positive. My friend and i both attended and are going to attempt the next class. Would thoroughly recommend. Thanks again!

Perfect for beginners. Only 6 in the class so easy to see what the Beth was doing during each demo. Broken down into stages and explained really well so made it much easier to make the finished item.

Very good class explaining how to set up a sawing machine and basic stitches. Plenty of time for practice and you get to make your own cushion too.
