About our Classroom
When you are joining us for a class we are happy to provide you with a well lit and comfortable work space – your own Horn Sewing Cabinet equipped with a Pfaff 2027 sewing machine, as well as a cutting mat. You may also bring in your own machine (in good working order). If you are using one of our Pfaff machines, we ask that you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled class starts to get the machine ready and threaded. You will need to bring (buy) your own Pfaff 2000 bobbin. Please bring along all other quilting tools and accessories required for your class.
