The class was wonderful! I never would have figured out to thread my machine without Julie Ann showing me how to do that! Thank you!

Additional instructions
This class is perfect for those students who have purchased a machine from The Sewing Room, those who have never used a machine and for those wanting a refresher on how to use their own machine. You may wish to bring your own machine, but it is NOT required. We have enough sewing machines for all students.
