Best Sewing Workshop Washington Near Me

Izy A: Ms Lee’s class was so fun! The environment is lovely, she is very thorough with her explanations, and made sure to give me space to try to figure out what I could on my own. I’ve never had a sewing class before, and now I’ve made my very own skirt and bag, and I think they came out really cute! I can’t wait to take another class with her. Highly recommend!

Nilufar Baratova: I love this wonderful oasis of creativity and fun. Ms. Antoinette is an amazing teacher, courageous entrepreneur and simply a beautiful soul who is passionate about her job. I had zero sewing skills and it is fascinating to see my transformation. I already made cool pillow covers, a cute polka dot skirt and I am working on my dress to impress project. I always look forward to my sewing classes where I can socialize with artistic people who love colors.

Paola Vidal: Took my first class today and most certainly looking forward to come back! The studio has a a great vibe, perfect to feel comfortable to work and learn. Antoinette was very nice, professional and patient. Left feeling very excited and confident about my future projects!

Renela Rucker: So thankful to have found A Special Lee Sewing Studio! I absolutely loved this sewing class. I learned so much about my sewing machine and basic sewing. With Ms. Lee’s guidance and expertise, I was able to leave the Complete Beginners Series with a handmade pillow, tote bag, my very own unique skirt, and a whole new confidence in my ability to create! I looked forward to class every week. She makes the environment very comfortable and inviting and makes sure you know that it’s okay to ask questions. Apart from the class itself, Ms. Lee is a great person. She is open, straight forward, and flexible. She shared more than sewing knowledge with me and I am grateful to have met her! I definitely plan to take more classes in the future!

Elena Butler: Great space and wonderful teacher. Ms Antoinette is attentive, kind and tailors the classes to the students’ needs. See picture of what I made during class.

Lisa Morton: LOVE Stitch Sew Shop! While I have yet to take a class, they have helped me reignite my passion for garment sewing and embroidery. I love the fact that they are right here in Old Town Alex. Itʻs a fabulous communal concept with lots of high quality fabric, patterns, and notions, and even higher quality people. Itʻs definitely worth a fly-by or more!

C R: Wonderful team and such fun atmosphere. I took two classes with Cristian and he is very knowledgeable, patient and fun to work with. The store is very well organized with a large amount of sewing supplies. Their fabric is very beautiful and very fair priced. It’s a nice experience from the moment you walk through the door until you walk out. I highly recommend the classes, your time and money will be well spent. And you will support a local business rather than big corporations.

Danielle Arthur: I stopped by Stich Sew Shop with a friend. We both had small children with us. The staff was not only super friendly, but also very accommodating. I needed to change my daughter and both ladies in the shop were so kind in helping me find an easy, safe place to do so. Of course, they have a great variety of unbelievably beautiful fabrics, patterns, and notions, too. I highly recommend this adorable shop for both the quality of their products and their service! It was an absolute delight to shop there.

Janice Simons: Great place. The yarn store Sweet Pea is very very nice. Nice selections great service.

Melissa Reilly: TLB is a gem. Kate, the owner goes above and beyond to provide excellent service, stay attuned to the interests and needs of her customers, and runs a well curated local small business. I feel part of a special, supportive community whenever I’m there. During “these uncertain times” Kate and her staff have worked incredibly hard to fill online orders, offering no-touch curbside pickup, free local delivery and swift mail delivery if requested instead. She’s hosted zoom social time, mask making and embroidery sessions, show new inventory as it comes in. I hope she feels the from from her customers, cuz we sure love her!

Naomi Johnson: Three Little Birds Sewing Co. is my jam! I always find charming fabric & cool patterns. The community Kate has created is just the best.

Kid Troopa: Staff is freakin awesome! Communication is great and experience is personalized! Extremely grateful they are located nearby. They’ve made my introduction into the world of sewing ten times better!

Mia Higgins: I love this store! Nice fabrics that are unique, great sewing classes and the owner has a wealth of knowledge.

Nija W: Jamila is an exceptional and extremely knowledgeable teacher. My daughter started her sewing journey four years ago and has learned so much. Jamila has continuously encouraged her, all while fostering a deeper love for design. Throughout Jamila’s coaching and mentoring, not only have I noticed growth in my daughter’s skillset, there has been an evolution in her confidence to create. The studio is always clean and classes start and end on time. Stitched with Style is both organized and professional. I would recommend this studio for any and all sewing levels.

Kenya Sariah: Ms.Jamila is a great sewing teacher. She has taught me many things, I really enjoy taking her classes. She inspires me to keep sewing.

Stephanie Patterson: Words cannot express how much I enjoy being a part of Stitched with Style classes. It’s always a warm and inviting atmosphere. Plus being able to increase and perfect my skills.

Aisha Murphy: Jamila is a very experienced design teacher! She taught me how to work with commercial patterns, draping, and a few other techniques to help me hone my skills. I love that she teaches children, hosts design workshops and offers private classes. If you are looking for a reputable instructor, I highly recommend Jamila :)

Freddie B Isreal: Dope school with some great classes. If you want to learn the art of sowing, you gotta come here to take classes. The classes are super affordable as well. There are classes for all ages and all types of difficulty levels from beginner to expert. Nice clean space, great teachers. The owner Jamila is great and I love her teaching. You can tell she has a passion for sewing and it comes out in all the classes she teaches.

TS Tatum: Jamila the owner is a true sewing genius and can take a total beginner to creating real things in an astoundingly short amount of time. Love this place.

Rosiland R: Jamila is absolutely the best teacher! I am so surprised by what I’ve been able to make under her instructions. Hands down a must try 🙃

Catherine C: I recently had my Pfaff Sewing Machine serviced at Sew Margarbo. The customer Service was outstanding in every way. I was greeted very professionally. The tune -up was fast and through. The owner explained the service done and shared a few hints. My machine is working as good as the first day I bought it (years ago). The owner is very pleasant, professional. A beautiful shop. I will never take my machine anywhere else. Thank you again for a great experience! Catherine

Lynne Lott: After careful consideration of different sewing machines, I went to Sew Magarbo to check out theirs. It was a very good, low pressure shopping experience. But that is only part of the reason I purchased my machine there. The commitment to the purchaser was very important to me. I want to learn about all the cool features of my machine, and there are ample opportunities for learning at Sew Magarbo. Frequent classes, telephone support if needed, and a "club" for others who purchased the same machine as me were all super benefits. I feel comfortable asking newbie questions, and appreciate getting together with others who love to learn and share.

Michael Ku-DiPietro: I heard about their store through a friend and signed up my sister for a summer class. There was such a variety of fabric to choose from and it was incredibly high quality! The teachers and staff created a welcoming environment and she was always happy when I picked her up at the end of the day. Thank you Sew Magarbo!

LISA RAMOS: I have been a customer of Sew Magarbo for a few years. Their customer service, friendliness and professionalism are outstanding. Imagine my surprise when I read a review stating the manager was "aggressive" while communicating the rules and policies (clearly stated on their website) to a client that was not compliant. I have never heard or seen the manager or any employee speak to anyone in a disrespectful manner. Being firm about rules that protect their customers (especially during COVID) is what I would expect and appreciate as a parent for any child attending camp at Sew Magarbo. Being fully vaccinated and wearing a mask does not give you the right to break the rules. Perhaps you have not read (policies, news, etc) about COVID breakthrough cases being contagious. Entitlement and non compliance of COVID rules shows you have no concern about harming others. I would like to thank Sew Magarbo, its manager and employees for keeping us and our children in a safe environment.

Jeff Spencer: My wife and I have purchased at least 4 machines from Sew Magarbo in the last two and a half years. She is no less than superior in her capacity as a shop owner and manager. We have taken numerous classes from her and her staff as well. She consistently over delivers when she does business with us. This is the best sewing studio and shop in Northern Virginia.

KMB: This store is and was AMAZING! Everyone working was so helpful, Mr. Tom Ms. Deseriee took their time to explain to me how certain materials would fit around me and how certain materials can be used. Ms. Phoo added extra things and more stuff on sale so we can afford it, everything about this place was great!

Justin Tobey: New to sewing and went to G Street Fabrics for the first time. The staff were friendly and helpful without hovering, and the selection was amazing! Plenty of inexpensive fabric options perfect for a beginner like me, as well as lots of higher quality options too. Looking forward to being a regular!

Beth Pulsifer-Anderson: Best customer service ever in a fabric store. Linda was so helpful. We were search for off white bridal fabric in just the right weight. She even went outside with us to match the colors in daylight.

Sara Hornberger: Great selection, friendly and knowledgeable salespeople, good prices. They have a whole room of discount fabric leftovers. The store is clean, tidy, and well-stocked with all kinds of fabrics and accessories.

Moniya Brockington: They had AMAZING customer service. The manager Ms. Phoo was very nice, she even set out extra fabrics. There was also a very diverse number of workers there. The workers were very patient.

Julia Klag: This is an amazing fabric and sewing notions superstore. It does not have accessories or machines, but it has huge variety of fabric, zippers, buttons, etc. A must for any enthusiastic sewist

Joshua Moaney: Best fabric store I ever been to they was very nice and friendly. Phoo was a very good manager and she even hired more people to accommodate my classmates.
