Let us create a class just for you!
We recognize that it is impossible to offer classes on topics that fill the needs of everyone or that will fit everyone’s schedule.  With that in mind, we are offering you the chance to have a class tailor made just for you.  If you can gather together a group, either children or adults, that would be interested in learning something in particular, give us a call and we’ll see what we can do to make it happen!
Use our classroom for FREE!
Do you have a 4-H club or Scout troop doing a sewing project?  Or maybe a sewing or quilting group needing some space for a special project? We are willing to allow these kinds of groups to use our classroom during regular store hours whenever we don’t have anything else scheduled.  Plus, we can loan you sewing machines and/or sergers if you need them.  Just give us a call and we’ll work something out.
