Art and Stitch PLUS Ed

​ 
PLUS Ed will be a three-month class and currently in session.  You may apply to a WAITLIST for the next class..  Lessons will be posted to the closed website classroom each month on three designated Fridays.  The Second Friday class of each month will be a LIVE virtual meeting to show your projects and ask questions.

**Depending on the number of participants, I may schedule a morning and evening session.
Classes will be recorded.  Watch 24/7.  And available even after the last class.  Refer back any time to your purchased classes. 

​Expectations:  You will need to have a basic understanding of machine embroidery operations and Art and Stitch basic commands.  Because embroidery machines vary, we will not cover hooping techniques or specific machine operations, functionality or features.

Cost of the class is $60 per month. 
You may purchase monthly access or the entire 3-month course for $180.
