    Matthew is a great teacher - knowledgeable about different sewing machines, very patient and excellent at communicating the “how” and “why” for each step. At the end of the lesson we had made our own very cool tote bags. We actually brought my (teen) daughter’s machine that had been sitting unused on the shelf, and he taught her the lesson on her own machine. She is looking forward to returning regularly to Atomic to work on more projects.

    This was a fun class I enjoyed every minute of it! It was almost a one on one and I learned the basics of how to thread the machine and the different things the machine can do. I made my first pillow that looked perfect. Instructor was so nice.

    Really fun and informative! I was a complete novice to sewing, but the instructor Lauren was very nice & patient with us. After only 2 hours, I feel confident in continuing to practice on my own sewing machine. Thank you!
