Classes
We are no longer offering regularly scheduled classes. However, if you need some help with a project we are here for you! We can try talking you through your project at the cutting table - no charge. If you need more than a two or three minute overview of what to do we can set up a private class for you. The charge for this will be $25 per hour and we'll set it up so that it works for both of us. You'll only pay for the time you need help, but we do have a one hour $25 minimum.
Group List
Do you need some social sewing time? Consider joining one of our groups. Groups are informal get-togethers of like-minded folks for the purpose working on a project and socializing with others. The fee is $5 per session or $100 for the entire year. You do need to let us know if you are coming each week because (1) we will worry about you if we are expecting you and you don't show and (2) we need to make sure that we have enough seating for everyone. Below is a list of our current groups:
Hand Sewing Group: This group is a combination of our Spargoettes group and our No Machines Allowed group. The group meets every Thursday from 1pm to 4pm, unless we happen to be closed on Thursday for some reason (for example, Thanksgiving Day).
We are in the planning phase of adding a few more regular group meetings. When those plans are finalized this page will be updated.
Sew Day: The idea of a "sew day" is that this is a time for you to come in and sew on whatever you want. Maybe you are making a gift for a family member and you don't want to work on it at home because they might see something they shouldn't. Maybe you just need to get out of the house for a few hours. Maybe you are tired of sewing by yourself and just want a little company. Maybe you need to sew somewhere besides home so you don't get distracted by household chores. Maybe you are staying in an RV and don't have room to spread out. Whatever the reason, Sew Day is here for you. The cost to use our classroom space for the day is just $5. Contact the shop to inquire about setting up a Sew Day for yourself or your group. We will do our best to accommodate you.
Bring whatever supplies you will need for your project. Our classroom is stocked with a selection of basic rulers, a cutting mat, rotary cutter, and iron for you to use. We also have a large design wall if you need to stand back from your project to see your layout better. You can bring your lunch or a snack too! We have a small refrigerator, a microwave, and coffee pot to keep you going.
You do need to sign up ahead of time to reserve your seat. No instruction will be provided. If you need help with your project, give us a call so we can set up a private class for you.
