What if the course isn’t what I was looking for?
We offer a 14-day money back guarantee if the class is not suitable for whatever reason.
Will there be downloads with the class and where can I access them?

Are the machine classes applicable to any machine, not just the ones you use?
Absolutely! Most of what we cover is applicable to all machine brands and models – however we make sure to tell you where and how other machines could differ. We also advise you when to pause and consult your user manual to check for specific instructions.
Do your courses come with kits?
Our classes do not come with kits and you will need to provide all of your own materials and supplies. All classes do come with full video instructions, including cutting requirements and patterns where applicable.
Do you offer a subscription service?
No. We prefer to let you pay only for the classes you need.
Can I buy someone a class as a gift?

What happened to your Instagram and Facebook?
Sadly, our Facebook and Instagram accounts were hacked and then removed by Meta in 2022. We have been working ever since to get them back, but we are not currently active on those platforms. Our Facebook Group is still live but we no longer have access to it, it is being used by unauthorised people so we would recommend avoiding it.
