Common Questions

What makes your intermediate classes different?

Our intermediate courses are offered as private, one-on-one sessions. This allows us to tailor the lesson to your specific skill level and the complex projects you want to create, ensuring a truly personalized and effective learning experience.

What kind of skills should I have before I enroll?

You should have a good grasp of sewing machine basics, including threading, winding a bobbin, and completing simple projects. This course is for those who are ready to move on to more intricate techniques and projects.

How long are the private lessons?

The length and frequency of private lessons are scheduled individually to suit your pace and project timeline. We will discuss this with you during our initial consultation.

Do I need to provide my own materials for advanced projects?

For more complex or personalized projects, we will discuss and plan the necessary materials with you in advance to ensure you have everything you need to bring your vision to life.

How does my class help children?

A portion of the fees from every adult course directly funds our free sewing classes for disadvantaged children. Your participation makes a real difference in providing a safe and nurturing space for young people.
