  • Sewing 101 Basics

    Reviewed by Hiroko N. on 7/23/2023
    I enjoyed this basic course very much! Teachers are very fun and inspiring. In each class, there is a project and 3 hours passes pretty quickly. There are many students of different skill levels, and it is still low pressure even if you don't know much about sewing. I was very confused to use a sewing machine before taking this class, but became a little more confident. Still a lot to learn :)
  • Intro to Knitting

    Reviewed by Victoria H. on 3/28/2022
    Instruction was great, loved the hands on technique, and was right on pace with my learning. I was knitting in no time, even went home and knitted for another few hours.
