It's a small group class, and people work at their own pace. Students who prefer to take a little more time, or who miss a class may need to work on homework between classes, or book in for Open Sew time. We have Supported Open Sew on a regular schedule, as well as non-instructional Sewcials and Your Studio time that can be booked if you don't have a sewing machine at home. We do our best to encourage and support you in finishing your project, but make no guarantee of completion if students miss classes or need extra time. We are all individuals in learning style! \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the nature and small size of our classes, we are happy to switch you to another session or offer a refund \u003cstrong\u003ewith a minimum of two weeks notice\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin 14 days of your starting class, we are happy to transfer your seat to a friend, but there are\u003cstrong\u003e no refunds available - FINAL SALE.\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNo shows are not eligible for refunds.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are a shift worker (or partnered with one, affecting your ability to plan) or have irregular ability to plan for other reasons, saving your registration for when you are certain about your availability reduces the stress for everyone - and if a class sells out before you get in, reach out to be added to a waitlist or to see if we can squeeze you in.
