About Our Classes


Our classes are a fun, laid-back experience! We try to make them as accessible as possible and we are willing to work with you to ensure that you can attend a class and have a great time learning something new. Do not hesitate to call and ask if there is something we can work out for a specific need. We offer small class sizes to give you a more personal learning experience. 

We ask that if you need to cancel a reservation for a class, that you try to give us at least 48 hour notice, but we understand that's not always possible. In the event you need to cancel, we will credit your class fee toward a future class or purchase with us. For classes that require materials, we will require you purchase your materials from our shop. Our way of thanking you for coming to a class and supporting our shop is giving a 20% discount on all any supplies (a book, pattern, ruler, fabric, etc) you may need for a class. Payment for classes is due at the time of enrollment. 

It is best that you purchase any necessary materials prior to class. We want your class time to be spent sewing. We ask that you come in at least by the business day prior to class. This ensures that we will have your fabrics and supplies organized and ready for your class. 

We prefer that you bring your own sewing machine and some sewing basics (seam ripper, thread, scissors, and pins). However, we have many of those basics for sale if you need one. We do have a couple sewing machines available if you do not have one, but you will need to let us know prior to class so we can have that ready for you.
