“Blanca was amazing! Loved her company and the course itself. She made it very easy to learn both the machine set up and the stitching part by letting me practise over and over again and showing me all the different tricks along the way. Plus, I got to take my own cushion cover home. Highly recommend it. Gracias Blanca!”

“Blanca is a great teacher! I had no idea how to use a sewing machine and she was patient and encouraging as I spent 2 hours learning the particulars of the machine, and understanding how it works. I feel like these skills will really stay with me. I was also pleased to make a nice cushion cover - the cherry on the cake! It was the perfect amount of time to learn the basics. Would definitely go to other courses hosted by Blanca.”
