LOVE!!!

Loved the Intro to Sewing course! I had just about given up on the idea, that I could learn how to sew. Lissa is so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. The class was really fun! It was wonderful to walk away with three pieces that I can say I sewed! Thank you for the lovely experience!

Highlight of 2025

I've discovered that the key to successful adulting is to set yourself up so you always have *something* to look forward to. This intro workshop was That Thing for me in October '25. I'd never touched a sewing machine before and was getting annoyed by how much I was spending to get my pants hemmed (I'm 5'1"). My husband and I enrolled in Caitriona's weeknight sessions, and it was SO MUCH FUN. We finished a reversible tote with a pocket in session one, right off the bat. Session two was a lined (!) ZIPPERED (!!) pouch, which is currently keeping the contents of my oversized bag organized. And then, for sessions 3&4 -- AN ACTUAL PAIR OF PANTS! In my size! With pockets!! Are you kidding me? I could go on and on about how great and satisfying this class was, but in short, 10/10, A++, would enroll again.
