Essential is the right word

I’m not a beginner but got a lot of tips and tricks out of this course….it sure makes my life easier. There’s something for everybody…..I can now cut the right way, sew with no pins, handle slippery and curly light weight knits etc etc…..I just loved this course!!! I especially appreciate the fact that there are no brand specific stiches and stuff so you can just use any machine you have. I recommend this fantastic course for anyone who want to tackle knits! Thanks Angela for putting in so much time and effort into these videos!

Nothing but praises for this class!!

Great class for beginners or advanced!! I’ve been sewing for a very long time, but have always avoided knits. This class takes the fear out of sewing with knits. Loved all the tips for sewing with knits from cutting them out to sewing it up. Thanks Angela for sharing your time and knowledge with us.
