Friday Night and Saturday: "Open Sewing 3 hours $38.00" (Sept.-April) these classes are set up for students who enjoy sewing and once a week is just not enough for them. It is for students who want to learn more, and have more time to work on their project. They are upon availability and will be sent to you by e-mail.  This is on a first come-first serve basis.
Private Lessons: Private lessons are available most week nights and weekends to fit your schedule. Private lessons must be scheduled in advance. More information can be found here.

OPEN SEWING CLASSES

Students may sew anything they wish from clothing to quilts to crafts.  Students are encouraged to try different projects in degree of difficulty at their own pace.

New students who have never sewn before are welcome to join the open sewing classes once they have completed a 3 hour private lesson.

Students may make their own Halloween costume in "Open Sewing" Classes

and they can make a family vintage memory quilt too!

 

 

Young students who are fashion minded are encouraged to take this class.  They will continue working on their fashion design/sewing portfolio. Students will learn different fabrics, seams, the function of a machine, reaction to fabrics, and pattern making.

During the year students will make 3 - 4 projects in an intermediate to difficult degree of difficulty. The objective of this class is to introduce skills to students who are interested in fashion design and dress making so that they can produce garments that will look both professional and original.

 

 

Semi-Private Sewing Class

Our semi-private sewing class has a maximum of 2 students only. Whether new to sewing or advanced, students will have one-on-one training and can work intensively on both their projects and their sewing portfolios. Students will work at their own pace and skill level.
 
 

*Students who are highly interested in fashion design and wish to participate in local fashion shows are encouraged to take both the Dress making and Fashion Design class, and a Semi-Private Class.
