“I was looking at getting into sewing with very little recent experience and stumbled across Rapha's class. Rapha was very knowledgeable in her craft and explained everything really well. My sister and I really enjoyed our time in the class and we were very impressed with the final quality of our bag. I would highly recommend Rapha's classes.”
