Sewing, Quilting and Embroidery Classes for Everyone
Our staff teaches sewing, quilting and embroidery classes featuring a wide variety of projects for different skill levels. We've even got sewing classes for kids! Most of our classes are open to owners of any brand of sewing or embroidery machine (unless specifically stated in the class description)—all you have to know are the basic functions of your machine and how it works. Please read our Class Policies before you enroll for your class.
Below is a preview of what's coming up at The Presser Foot. Please click the link in the class listing to view the entire class description on the calendar page and to see the link to the supply list. Class fee does not include supplies unless specifically stated. Please review and download the supply list before you register for the class.
Please enroll for your class by calling the store at least two days prior to class day so that our instructors can have enough kits, handouts or other class materials for you. There may be some preparation work required before class day—if this is the case it will be noted on the class supply list, so please be sure you enroll in class enough in advance that you can complete the prep work!
We add new classes frequently. Don't see what you want? Get a couple of your friends together and ask us about creating a class just for you! To see complete details about each class and to download the supply list for that class, visit the calendar page for the store location the class will be held at and click the class listing on the calendar.

This beginner level, in person, hands on class is perfect for those who have taken the owner's / guide classes (Quick Start Embroidery 1 and Quick Start Embroidery 2) and are ready to go onto the next step in learning how to use the embroidery features of their machines to create beautiful, personalized embroidered projects. Bring your machine, embroidery module, hoops and accessories to class and we'll help you complete this project!
Kit fee is included in class fee. Advance registration is required—call and register today!
Extra kits (if there are any left after class) will be available for purchase after class. You may purchase the kit only if you do not wish to come to class, but it does not include the embroidery design.

Over the course of the two class sessions, you'll learn to measure for, cut and create your own quilted poncho. This cozy addition to your wardrobe is perfect for days when you need an extra layer or for those who need something that is easier to slip off and on than something that has to go over your head.
