1 Sewing lesson

At the sewing lesson, I was expecting at least to sew, but all this time we spend talking about my projects. I made 1 very insignificant stitch. I thought that I spent enough time by covering details of our lessons in the email. And was hoping we wouldn't have to spend much time by doing it again, but I was wrong. This lesson was very uninspiring.
Dean S.

1 Sewing lesson

When she left, I kept sewing and broke the needle on the machine, but was able to replace it, thread the machine again, and pick up where I left off. Although my needs are incredibly basic (I'm just making cloth bags), she quickly identified areas where she could help streamline the process as well as my technique. Now I feel I could probably take on a more complex project (like fixing the toys my dogs destroys).
Melissa S.

5 Sewing lessons

This was my first lesson today. Ken immediately began to get down to business after asking me what I need help with and what I planned to accomplish We went over machine basics, he explained various things such as thread types fabric types, stitching, tension and he demonstrated his abundant knowledge and teaching of learning how to begin sewing and the first steps to using my Industrial Consew and lightweight Singer.
