I took the intro to sewing class on their inauguration day, and it was awesome! Sarah is the sweetest, funniest, and most helpful teacher evah! She did a really great job getting us to all sew amazingly cute craft aprons and I can't wait to go back again and learn something new! It was WAAAAAAY easier than I thought to connect pieces of fabric together and wind up with something I'd actually wear! I really can't recommend Sew Crafty enough!

 

I took intro to sewing - where I actually did not sew my fingers together and bonus! ended up with a pretty cool apron - and a Gocco class - where you can take your own art and turn it into customized stationary. Both classes were so much fun - Sarah is a great teacher, and I met so many awesome people there. I can't wait to go back.
