  • Alteration - Basics Sewing (Private)

    Reviewed by Leah T. on 4/14/2024
    Very useful class! Ingvild was lovely and I liked the way she set up the class, having me bring in a couple items and work on them together while explaining everything and giving me instructions for continuing.
  • Machine Sewing

    Reviewed by Stewart N. on 3/25/2024
    I was an electronics engineer and in my retirement I learned 3D-printing, laser cutting, advanced woodworking and more at a makerspace. But the makerspace didn't have sewing and I didn't know how to shorten pants or even use a sewing machine to stitch a top loop on the stretchy green-screen fabric I use for my ZOOM session backgrounds. I also want to change a flannel shirt or two that I have with tuck-in tails to flat-bottomed so I don't have to tuck them inside my pants. I have no desire to make clothes from scratch. I now feel confident I can sew what I wanted to sew with what I learned in this course and some online research. The course had a relaxed friendly atmosphere and instructor Diana Rogers roamed the room giving each student considerable individual attention. After the first class, my wife and I finally ditched our 20-plus-year-old sewing machine that was giving her trouble, and purchased a new Singer sewing machine for less than $200 that is similar to the Singers we used in class. I highly recommend this course.
  • Sewing Machine Basics Workshop

    Reviewed by Antonio R. on 3/21/2024
    I really wasn't sure if I'd be ok as a complete novice in this class, but I was and had the BEST time! Two hours flew by. The instructor was a pleasure to work with and I love my little not-so-perfect tote bag. A reminder of which skills I need to work on.
  • Craft a Custom Leather Bag

    Reviewed by Carlee S. on 3/20/2024
    Ranger was fantastic! I would take another class with them any day. In between clear instructions and the fire playlist they let us take the lead on the sewing machines and helped us order food from a local spot so we didn't starve. Would definitely recommend this class.
  • Beginner Sewing: Zipper Pouch (Private - 1 Hour)

    Reviewed by Anju D. on 3/12/2024
    I’ve taken sewing classes with 10+ students and I much prefer the private classes, as I can get all my questions answered without waiting. Ingvild is patient and encouraging. I was able to finish the pouch in 1.5 hours, working at a leisurely pace.
  • Sewing 101: Basics

    Anonymous review on 3/3/2024
    The instructor was very patient and attentive, and the projects were appropriate for a beginner.

    Amanda was very patient with me. She demonstrated and I still didn’t understand or remember next steps she showed me again.

    So great! Fabulous venue to learn. Bright engaging instructors. I am obsessed with sewing now.

    Great workshop, simple and fun. Small group class so it felt like a 1:1 class at times. Looking forward to more!
