FAQ's

​

1. Why is it better to purchase the machine you recommend? 

​

Learning to use a sewing machine can be tricky and in order to make the learning process as smooth as possible we recommend the machine that we use in the videos. The Brother CS6000i also has a speed control which is an important factor when a child is using a sewing machine for the first time.

​

2. My child already knows how to sew on a sewing machine so do you have any other sewing machine programs?

​

That's great! Please contact us to discuss options.

​

3. Do you teach virtual sewing to adults?

​

Please contact us so we can discuss options!

​

4. Do you ship overseas?

​

Sure! Please contact us so we can figure out the extra shipping costs!

​

5. What if my son/daughter is not 8-12?

​

We have designed this program for kids between ages 8-12 as we feel that a child younger than 8 is not ready for virtual sewing machine lessons, a studio lesson would be advised in this case. The sewing projects are age-appropriate and we feel too young for anyone older than 12. 

​

6. What if I only want 1 lesson?

​

Please contact us.
