Book A Private Lesson At Our Studio!

Whether you want to learn how to use a machine or are interested in making a special project, we invite you to book a private lesson at our studio!

In these one-on-one sessions, you’ll meet with one of our instructors and explore any topic of your choosing. Each session is $40 per hour. After attending your first lesson, you’re welcome to book another one or join one of our regular sewing classes.

Why would I want to book a private lesson?

Sewists opt to book a private lesson because they want to learn something new and they don't see that we're currently offering a class on that particular topic. Most of the private lesson requests that we receive are for machine familiarizations, in which a person is completely new to the sewing world and would like to really understand how to use their sewing machine before they jump into their first project. After attending a lesson, these sewists go on to attend their first sewing class and the rest is history! Alternatively, sewists sometimes want to make a specialized project that requires extra time, knowledge, or detail than what we can offer in our regular sewing classes. A private lesson is the best way to achieve that project.

Who are private lessons suitable for?

Anyone! We can accommodate kids and adults in our private lessons.

What is the pricing for private lessons?

Private lessons are $40 per hour.

How many lessons do I need to book?

It depends, but most of our private lessons last one to two hours. Beginner sewists, including those who are learning how to use their machine, book private lessons for an hour and that is enough to cover all the basics. If you need more instruction, you can book another lesson after your first. We don’t have any limits as to how many private lessons you can/should book.

Am I better off booking a private lesson or attending one of your classes?

It depends. Our regular sewing classes may be a better value for you because you’ll get more instruction time for about the same price and materials are sometimes included with the class. You will have to provide your own materials for the private lesson.

Most of our private lessons are for brand new sewists who want to learn how to operate their sewing machine. Since we don’t host many “Learn Your Machine” classes, we usually refer them to a private lesson. We’ve hosted other lessons where the customer wanted to make a costume; since we don’t have too many classes for this subject, a private lesson was the best choice for them.

We recommend that you look at our studio class calendar and see what’s coming up. If you don’t see something that you’re interested in, we’d be happy to have you in our studio for a private lesson!

You only sell machines from Janome, Brother, Husqvarna Viking, and Pfaff, but I have a machine from another brand and I want to learn how it works. Can I still book a private lesson?

Absolutely! Just be sure to bring your instruction manual and some extra accessories with you to your lesson.

Did you buy a machine from us? In that case, your lesson is free! We offer free, unlimited owner lessons with every machine purchase.
