Beginner Sewing Boot Camp - Wearables
Awesome class! Very helpful and hands-on instruction for beginners. -
Sewing Machine Basics
This was a great class as intro to using a sewing machine. By the end we'd made pin cushions and I felt very confident to use my machine at home and thread the machine. Nancy was a great teacher! -
Modern Quilting Lab
Great class! The instructor was always willing to help and answer questions. It was very enjoyable. I learned a lot of great sewing skills. -
Mend, Alter and Upcycle Sewing Boot Camp
This was my second class at M. Avery Designs, and it was awesome! I learned practical skills like how to hem in general, hem jeans, blind hem, replacing buttons and zippers, and patching holes. Megan was a wonderful teacher, and gave me extra help when something was unclear or I forgot something from the previous class. She was extremely patient. During the last two class we put our skills to use by bringing in items we wanted to alter/mend. I was able to take in the armpit area of two dresses, so that the area would not longer show my bra. I also turned a long sleeve flannel into a short sleeve one, and altered an over-sized childhood t-shirt into something I can actually wear. I wish I had learned to sew sooner, but so glad I found M. Avery Designs when I did. I highly suggest the school, this specific class, and will likely take another course to further my sewing skills. Thanks so much Megan! -

Sewing Machine Basics
I have taken sewing classes before where I went to class and used their machines, then I went home and was intimidated by my own machine being different. By taking my machine to this class and really learning it, I am now so confident that I have started a project immediately at home. The instructor's pace was great for beginner level. Her information was clearly understood and her advanced preparation made the process very organized. Thank you. -
Sewing Machine Basics
Very nice instructor! Very Helpful! -

Bodice Pattern Drafting
This was a great course, and the small class size made it easy to connect with the other students. Rachael is a wonderful and patient instructor, who spent quality time with each of us and her directions were very easy to follow. I didn't know there was so much math involved (which I hate) but I left the class feeling like I can take my craft to the next level. I felt like the information I received more than outweighed the cost. I can't wait to sign up for another class. -

Sewing Knits Boot Camp
I loved the class. Ellen, the instructor, was patient and kind. She was able to adapt her teaching to each of us individually as we all had different levels of experience with sewing. I look forward to another class with MAvery Studios again.
