Sewing Class Information

Village Fabrics maintains year-round class schedules which include classes designed to help you learn to use your machine as well as classes geared toward special types of sewing such as heirloom sewing, gift-making and machine embroidery.

Machine guide classes are free to those who purchase their sewing or embroidery machines or sergers from Village Fabrics.

Registration Information

All classes have limited seating, so please register as early as possible. You must register for Guide Classes so we can plan seating. Class supply lists are provided upon registration.

The class fee must be paid to insure your space. You may pay by credit card (Visa or MasterCard) over the phone, or by check or cash.

You do not need to own a Bernina™ to participate. Bring your machine. We'd just like you to enjoy the sewing experience.
