“Jackie was absolutely incredible. So personable and made sure everyone felt included. She’s clearly a master of her craft but still seemed incredibly excited to teach us the very basics.”

“I honestly thought this class was fantastic and loved that the resource guide had everything we needed before/after to reference. I really do not have anything to say for improvements.”

“Jackie is hilarious and her explanation of sewing machine details was both funny and informative. I wondered if I’d zone out in a 3.5 hour class, but it was so fun. It also felt super inclusive and chill, which I appreciated as someone with zero skills or knowledge.”

“I learned so much, and Jackie made us feel like a little community :) thank you!”

“Phenomenal teacher. I felt so motivated and supported. Jackie has an incredible skill of teaching and made the class so fun and approachable.”

“Jackie's engaging energy! I was so nervous about trying something out of my wheelhouse and they made it feel accessible. I really loved the way they described technical parts of the machine in a way that felt accessible, a visual, a fun little way to remember it, and then a, I do we do, you do little situation. 10/10 teacher.”

“Learning the mechanics of the [sewing] machine and how it works. It helps give more logic to the set up when you understand what it is doing.”

“I really appreciated Jackie's focus on building good habits. I could tell that they wanted us to leave with a foundation that was sturdy. Jackie also creates a really fun, relaxed, and supportive learning environment. And they're so funny!”

“Jackie’s fantastic personality and patience with teaching the group! The class was thorough and I learned so much. Most importantly, I want to keep learning how to sew!”

“Meeting other ppl who are active in our community + love to learn new things, Jackie was the best instructor/teacher/leader/human.”

“Jackie is probably the only person who could make 3.5 hours of sewing, exciting!”

“Learning the universal basics of the sewing machine. Really helps with picking my machine!”

“Jackie the instructor! They were extremely fun and intentional and moved at a slow pace that was accessible for everyone. It made it a safe space for questions and then to ask for help once we got started on the machines.”

“I feel like I really know my sewing machine now. Jackie’s experience is so impressive and she’s a fantastic educator. We learned about the sewing machine in detail, ways we don’t typically learn anywhere. The class beyond exceeded my expectations. I didn’t Read the description ahead of time just due to my availability, And had no idea we would actually leave with a fully formed tote bag that has actually become my number one dog toy bag I take to the park with me. The class size was also perfect. You really felt like you were getting one on one instruction. And being able to help your neighbor helped solidify any basics we reviewed. Thank you also for having note pads available! Looking back at the notes has been so helpful. This class is really so incredible and I highly recommend it to ANYONE. It’s the perfect length and so comprehensive.”

“Jackie! I took her sewing 1 class the week before, and this class also far exceeded my expectations. There was so much to consider that I never would have thought if I had just tried hemming something on my own. I feel like such a pro now with Jackie’s wealth of knowledge that she shared with us and the confidence she gave me.”

“The instructor was fantastic! She was friendly, encouraging and upbeat. Also, it was really nice there were snacks and water. It was a homey feeling.”

“My favorite part about the class was by far the instructor, Jackie! They did such an amazing job explaining all the parts and functions of the machine, and were so incredibly patient through all of the jams and mistakes. Their energy was so fun and infectious, and made this class so enjoyable!”

“Jackie! She is kind, an expert in sewing and sewing machine knowledge, and so very supportive! A true professional!!!”

“Jackie, the instructor. I know everyone’s learning style is different but this was some of the most intuitive teaching I’ve ever received.”

“Direct, in the moment support and feedback.”

“I loved how detailed Jackie was in their instructions and that everything they taught had a watch and then do approach. I felt comfortable with my instructor and the other people in the class because we were all encouraged to work together and support each other as we learned. Jackie's energy was outstanding as well! I will definitely look into other classes with them for the future!”
