Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring my own machine?

We provide students with a sewing machine and equipment to use during class. But, you’re welcome to bring your own, if you’d like!

What class do I take first?

We strongly recommend that students dive into our Learn To Sew Series before joining our garment or quilting classes. Our LTS series is designed to teach the basics of sewing, including how to use a sewing machine, how to properly cut and pin fabric, and how to keep consistent seam allowances. These skills are essential for success in our other classes!
