    I worked with Mary and she was a perfect match. I showed up over prepared with my machine and variations of fabric. She jumped right in and provided me with all of the base knowledge I need to jump into sewing including stitching techniques, fabrications, along with the ins and outs of my particular machine. There wasn’t a single question that was left unanswered and she was genuinely down to earth. The two hours flew by and I honestly wish I could rewind that whole day because we worked very well together. I’m so happy I chose this!!

    I enjoyed the lessons. I made a fabric purse with a zipper. I am a complete novice and I completed it within the 2 hours. My instructor, Dynasty, was patient and encouraging.

Question from Francesca K.
I had a class right before covid then my machine broke and I couldn't get in person help, I need a refresher and only kind of have a project I started to hand sew - three of four panels of the skirt are done and I noped out. Would this class be a good fit?

Question from Diana K.
Hi, how is the time actually nailed down and scheduled within the huge window of 10am-8pm? What if I can't get the time that works for me? Also, how advanced is the teacher? I am interested in learning how to work with difficult fabrics like knits and slinky/silky fabrics. Also, things like setting in a sleeve and finishing with bias tape. Please advise. Thank you! Diana.
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi Diana! Since this is a private class and the class is for 2 hours, the time you and the instructor will meet would depend on both your availability. Once you booked the class, the instructor will get in touch with you to agree on the time you will do the private class. They can certainly do that, you just need to let them know when they reach out what you would like to work on so they can put you with the perfect teacher. The teachers have experience in the field and degrees from fashion colleges.
