  • Introduction to Machine Sewing - Make a Pin Cushion

    Reviewed by Regina H. on 12/9/2018
    It was a very nice introductory course that allowed me to quickly learn to thread the sewing machine and make a small project. I was only hoping to learn a little bit more sewing glossary or maybe a sheet with directions to go along with our project. I left with a really cute pincushion!
