Date: Wednesday, October 12th, 2016

Time: 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM

COST: $10.00

This is the second class in our “Raising Your Sewing IQ” series. In the first class we covered some of the more basic features on your high end machines like settings and some general everyday presser feet. Although we discussed many wonderful features that your machines possess in that first class, we still have a lot to cover! When it comes to these sophisticated sewing machines, it is important to learn about all the different ways your machine can make sewing easier and more fun. This way, the machine is less likely to intimidate you!
