It’s a great time to find the class right for you that allows you to explore new techniques or practice others you want to perfect.
Equipment
Are you looking to purchase a new sewing machine? While many of our classes require you to bring your own sewing machine, there are others that have sewing machines provided, allowing you to “try before you buy.”
Perhaps you’ve wanted to try longarm quilting but don’t have access to a longarm machine? We offer several classes that provide both stand-up and sit-down long arm machines for you to choose which class will have the experience you are looking for.

Our faculty is top-notch. Many have taught not only throughout the U.S. but internationally as well. And several are published authors too. We bring the experts to you.
