Sew Zipper Pouches

Reviewed by Meara S. on 9/1/2022

Diana, the instructor, was wonderful and I highly recommend the class. I know basic sewing but had never sewn a zipper. I was able to buy the supplies (very cute fabrics available) and supplies at the craft store, or you can bring them with you. The class was in a small group yet Diana gave individual attention to each of us to guide us into all producing really nice zipper pouches. Look forward to taking more classes here and with this instructor!
