• 5/5 from Barbra Johnston, attended Jul 2026: I couldn't be happier with the class and teacher. I came into this class with no sewing experience but Narda the teacher walked me through everything step by step. She explained things easy to understand and she had so much patience when having to repeat things for me. Narda was a bright, bubbly, person making it very easy to work with her. I would strongly recommend this class and any of the other classes that Narda runs. Thanks Narda for a great experience and I look forward to learning more from you in the future. Barb.
