Beginners Face to Face Sewing Classes

The Beginner’s Face To Face Sewing Classes will soon have you sewing like a professional, even if you’ve never used a sewing machine.

Our cleverly structured classes are easy to follow and can take you from beginner to expert. You will learn on your own sewing machine and become confident enough to continue at home.
