Excellent course!

I love that the course isn't too technical which makes it easy to follow along and each lesson is very succinct. I can easily squeeze in individual courses throughout my busy day.

Hey! My name's Lauren from RVA (East Coast) This Christmas, I bought a Singer 4452 -- this is the first tutorial I've watched (and watched all the way through in one sitting) so - all that's left now is to learn the basics of the anatomy of the Singer, grab my materials and follow along (being that I watched all the way through for context). Thanks for making content like this and I'll definitely be watching your youtube video, "An Introduction to Sewing Machines For Beginners" -- You're changing lives! :)

I thought I would watch the whole course first before making an attempt. I will have to go back and see how the gray beanie was adjusted. Other than that, as usual this course was worth the money and time spent.

I love the way Cornelius explains things, breaking down each detail and providing clear, easy to understand demonstrations for each step. This bag pattern and sewing instructions seems like a perfect introduction to pattern making. It’s simple enough to understand and do, but also introduces techniques I know will come in useful for more advanced pattern making.

Cornelius Quiring

When I was 3 years old, I was in a farm accident that has left my body asymmetrical. I learned how to draft patterns and sew clothes to uniquely fit me. A way of embracing who I am. Today, I share my skills with those looking to do the same and empower themselves.
