• Intro to Crochet

  Marianne F. • February 17, 2026
  Samaya was fabulous! She was so patient and sweet. Her instructions were perfectly simple and straightforward, yet never condescending. A true professional, I would refer anyone to her and hope to take more courses from her. I learned so much in such a short period.

• Embroidery Basics: Onsite

  Anonymous • January 25, 2026
  The instructor was great. Good pace.

• Needle-Felted Pumpkin

  Anonymous • October 17, 2024
  The course was fun! Well organized, clear instructions and positive feedback. I love the pumpkin I made. My only criticism is that there is insufficient handicap parking at the learning center. In my opinion, all of the spaces right at the learning center should be reserved for handicapped people.

• Sewing 101 Basics

  Hiroko N. • July 23, 2023
  I enjoyed this basic course very much! Teachers are very fun and inspiring. In each class, there is a project and 3 hours passes pretty quickly. There are many students of different skill levels, and it is still low pressure even if you don't know much about sewing. I was very confused to use a sewing machine before taking this class, but became a little more confident. Still a lot to learn :)

• Shibori-Dyed Scarf

  Elizabeth H. • January 25, 2023

• Intro to Crochet

  Jessica N. • January 22, 2022
  The instructor was knowledgeable and patient. I was able to get examples, practice and encouragement. I look forward to another class, I would like to know how to read crochet patterns or perhaps learn how to make some other items.

• Intro to Frame Loom Weaving

  Anonymous • April 8, 2021
  I loved this class! It was awesome to meet people out of state and learn different concepts with them. The instructor shared plenty of background and topics that broadened my expression. Wish there was a second two offered remotely. Would recommend to any one who loves working with fabrics.

• Frame Loom Weaving

  Anonymous • July 1, 2019
  Was a great class. Teacher was fun and knowledgeable. You make your own frame loom so you have a loom when the class is over to keep weaving. Make sure you buy the right yarn for weaving otherwise it will be a challenge.

  If you’re fortunate enough to take a class with Tammy, you’ll be forever thankful. She is extraordinary. Please seek out her website (tlddesigns.com) to stir your creative soul. You will find yourself wanting to sign up for tons of artful adventures at one of her two locations. I know I will be spending as much time there as my piggy bank will permit. ~ Tina R.

• Leather Surface Design

  C M • April 2, 2018
  Great place to take hands-on art classes and give your creativity a outlet. The teacher Ausrine has a small studio tucked away on a side street in Evanston. She is outstanding - very strong teacher with a great outlook, encouraging and very positive attitude. You'll leave feeling uplifted. I will definitely be back for more classes.

• Leather Surface Design

  Knotty K • April 2, 2018
  This is an excellent art studio! I have had the best experience and learned so much on the art of wet felting and always leave with the most beautiful one of a kind hand felted scarf or wearable piece of art. Ausrine is such a knowledgeable and patient teacher and shares her enthusiasm and many talents in such a way that helps you to be excited and creative. You will love taking a workshop or a one on one hands-on class that will keep you coming back again and again. I will continue to be inspired and take more classes with Ausrine.

  This class was more than I expected. The instructor was knowledgeable in many types of art genres, her teaching was hands on and she explained why through every step. She was generous in her teaching, time and spirit. Already looking at my calendar for another class under her instruction.

• Shibori Resist Dyeing Level 4: Batik & Clamp-Resist

  Cassandra W. • May 20, 2016
  This was my fourth shibori class of the series and I think my favorite. I loved them all but we learned both itjame shibori and batik in this class so we had twice as many finished pieces to take home. I'm so excited with my new found knowledge I can't wait to try some of the dyeing techniques on my own!

• Shibori Resist Dyeing Level 2: Stitching

  Cassandra W. • April 17, 2016
  Christian is as great instructor and very knowledgeable about fabric dyeing and shibori. He taught us many variations of the technique we were learning and also showed us examples of his own work. I look forward to taking more classes with Christian!
