    Reviewed by Kathleen O. on 3/7/2020
    I was so happy I took this class! I wasn't sure if my sewing skills would be good enough to complete the project, but the teacher walked us through, step-by-step. At first I thought the course might be too long, but it was exactly the right amount of time to finish the Boro stitched needle book in one day. We learned mending techniques that were used on the inside and outside cover, as well as how to put the book together. There was a bit of history included to give us historic and cultural context. The setting was lovely, my classmates were nice and supportive, and both the snacks and lunch were absolutely delicious! Getting to shop during breaks was fun as well. I highly recommend this class.

    All in all I thought the class was way over priced. Though I did have a good time and like my takeaway I would not take another similar class
