Sew Simple Workshop - Zipper Pouch
I have been intimidated by zippers. Well, no more! Wanda is a great teacher. I was able to create a cute stylish pouch with her direction. -
Learn to Sew in a Day: Skirt
Wanda is an amazing teacher and extremely patient. Aside from tracking me the basics of this simple skirt, she shared information about everything from selecting fabrics and measuring properly to threading the machine. I am very happy that I have successfully made a cute skirt and I can’t wait to wear it. -

Learn to Sew in a Day: Tote Bag
While the outward appearance of the school facilities caught me off-guard, the machines and materials used in the class were great and the teacher was super friendly. They were incredibly patient and let me do a more sophisticated product than what I signed up for-- Dani, the instructor, let me experiment with zig zag stitches, reinforced handles, and pockets. The class takes an hour less than listed but they want to give everyone, even the perfectionists and slowest learners, time to perfect their product. -

Pattern-Making (Private)
After the reading the reviews I decided to just go for it and take the pattern making private course with Daniel. I learned so much in two hours. He was so patient and broke everything down to me. I will definitely be signing up for another class. I enjoyed it so much and he was a great instructor. He was professional and very knowledgeable. -

Learn to Sew in a Day: Tote Bag
The instructor sent a text the evening before the class and canceled it because there weren't enough students enrolled. And then asked me to reschedule for another Saturday. Strangely CourseHorse sent an email out the same evening announcing there were still 5 seats left in the class! So how many students does the course need to meet then? To give up a summer Saturday to attend a class like this was a sacrifice and a now a total loss. To reschedule another Saturday in hope it will happen is not an option. I want my money back.
