Our Classroom
Posted by Simina Mattoo on
We are super excited to introduce our sewing classroom at the store! When I was first considering opening a fabric store I also wanted to be able to teach sewing lessons. We were very lucky to find a space that had a front & back room. Ideally, I wanted the classroom to be separate from the store and we stumbled upon the perfect space.
For a while, we used our back space as storage for fabric rolls until we could get boxes made to put our Broadcloth, Crepe & Velvets in. Once we emptied out the back it made it a lot easier to visualize how we were going to layout the classroom.
Some features of our classroom include:
- 8 Desks & BONUS they don't shake when you're sewing!
- 4 Outlets suspending down from the ceiling: this reduces tripping hazards in the classroom
- Bright Lighting: This is something we get complimented on a lot!
- Free WiFi
- Bathroom
- Kitchen
Our classroom can be used for the following:
- Sewing Classes/Lessons
- Quilting Classes
- Drop-In Sewing: This can be done individually or with a group of up to 6 people! It costs $10/person.
- Birthday Parties (Sewing Parties)
- As a Rental Space
If you're interested in sewing classes & are a beginner, it is definitely worth it taking a beginner or one-on-one lesson as you will learn the basics such as parts of your sewing machine, how to thread the machine, practice sewing & a final project.
If you'd like to do a drop in just send me an e-mail, give a call or visit in person to book a date & time.
We are excited to see the many creations that will happen in the classroom & hope you like our set-up!
