Your education is a combination of instruction, practical demonstrations and hands on practice. Students are taught the basics of the sewing machine, taught to thread, adjust and operate a walking foot and straight stitch industrial sewing machine.  Students are presented with basic upholstery projects (dining seats / small bench or ottoman) which help them learn the basic skills and techniques of upholstery.  Class sizes are limited to between 4 and 5 students per session.
