— Class size is always small with 3-5 people in most classes.
This insures you get the personal attention you need to get you sewing.
— Most times individuals are placed in classes with those of similar
ages and experience levels.
— Choose which class you are interested in taking. If you need
help, I can help place you in a class with those who are at your same
experience level.
Cost
Covers: Use of sewing machines, practice fabric,
rulers, scissors, marking tools, interfacing (if needed), tracing paper,
thread, needles, pins, muslin and tracing wheels. It is encouraged,
if you have a machine to bring it. It is more advantageous to learn
on your own machine since this is the one you will use in the future.
It is always encouraged to express and share your creativity, to bounce
ideas off one another and ask any questions you have. If you are working
on a different project at home and have questions, I will try to help.
If you are interested
in other areas of sewing let me know, we may be able to work it into
a class or I can offer another.
All lessons
are held in my studio at 420 South Washington on Street, North Attleboro,
MA 02760
