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.

10/10

I loved the introduction to sewing series! Katrina was my instructor and I couldn’t be happier. She is so knowledgeable and so patient. 10/10 would recommend!

Great class!!

Absolutely loved this class and already looking forward to taking more. Lissa is super helpful and patient.

Great class!

Lissa is a true expert! Her lifelong sewing experience makes her a master at teaching and breaking down sewing concepts for any type of sewer. Lissa’s studio is a welcoming environment and a good opportunity to meet other people. Thank you, Lissa!

I loved this class so much. Lissa is such a thorough and patient teacher. I left this four week workshop feeling capable and confident in my ability to sew. I don’t feel nearly as intimidated as I did when I began. Highly recommend.
