  • Sew a Zipper Pillow

    Reviewed by Jeff J. on 3/11/2019
    The class and the teacher were excellent. My only complaint is I think it's a little bait-and-switchy to make students pay extra for the material used in this class. I'm sure the class listing warned of this somewhere in the small print but it wasn't apparent to me. Not to mention paying ~$25 for the very simple fabrics on offer sure seems opportunistic on the shop's part.
