This class is a yearly class based on a month to month fee, and students are not required to attend all nine months. We understand that sports and other school conflicts may occur. However, we do encourage students to make every effort to try and attend each month from September to May so they may get the most out of the yearly sewing lesson plans. New students may join in at any time once they have had a minimum of two 2-hour private lessons. Students who sew for five or more months out of the school year are rewarded at the end of the year in May with a party, certificate, and yearly awards to show their dedication of sewing. Students are encouraged, but not required, to participate in local fashion shows, quilt shows, and sewing competitions.
