MAN CLASS (Runs every January, May, and September)
(We think the name is funny, even though women are welcome.)
Gents, your time has come. Your shirts will be button less no more, and the money you'll save hemming your own pants will eventually afford you a new flat screen, we swear. Oh yeah, and the best part: you'll be whipping up a sexy pair of cottage/pajama pants!
Ladies, don’t worry. If you’re a lucky sister who has no one to answer to (or if you’d just rather leave the Mr. at home), you can come sans garcon. (After all, most of us wear the pants anyway.) This is a great beginner’s class for everyone. Your supplies are included and you’re learning the basics of sewing and altering.
Couples, share the love. If you can’t convince your guy to take this course on his own, come as a pair. Working together with your hands on delicate details is sure to ignite those sparks. Ah, l’amour!
