Recommended Machines
The Brother CSi6000 is a fantastic machine for beginners and intermediate sewists. It is so reasonably priced that it will pay for itself with only a minimal amount of sewing and you won’t have the frustration of using your mom/grandmom/aunt’s machine.
If you are in the market for a basic serger, this Brother DZ1234 Serger offers some great features.
Whatever your skill level, we are here to help you. We offer scheduled group classes, drop-in groups and private lessons.
If you have any questions about our sewing classes or trips, feel free to contact me at BarrettsCustomDesign@gmail.com
I’m looking forward to chatting with you about your sewing plans.
