Lorna says:

“I am really excited to bring this brand new class to the studio. Creating self covered buttons is one of my favourite techniques and when used on a cushion cover they look so professional. Learning to sew automatic buttonholes with the machine is a total game changer too! This is an ideal progression from a beginners class.”
