As you all know, the best way to learn anything is by doing. The following classes are designed for just that. They are hands on sewing and embroidery classes. You will be bringing your sewing machines to each class. These are not demos! Since there is a lot of preparation involved for our instructors (plus of course their talents and knowledge), there is a fee for each creative class. Register for these classes as for the guide classes.
