    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.

    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.

    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.
