Hi Everyone!
It is so nice to be OPEN again, but,
we NEED to TAKE CARE of each other.
Of course, like everywhere - you need a mask, but, we are asking that if you have been near anyone who has been sick, and certainly anyone who is being tested for COVID because they are sick, please do not come to the shop or to classes. We cater to many at risk customers, and we want to be sure they are safe.
Like all of you, we hope that we are soon out of this terrible pandemic, but, in the meantime, please, stay home if you have been exposed.

machine skills and features. We would be happy to help you with those in classes
designed for the techniques you’d like to learn. If we aren’t offering the class you need,
ask! We’d love to be able to help. Sewing machine lessons are given by appointment
and are normally one on one.
