Sew-Creative Hands-On Sewing Workshops
You will receive instruction from Glenda Sparling, one of the sewing industry’s leading creative professionals, and take home valuable skills that will aid your sewing and creative projects for a lifetime. These classes are designed for busy women, needing lots of practical, valuable information, that can be effectively utilized immediately. Workshops are located in Eugene, Oregon, the heart of the beautiful Willamette Valley.
The Willamette Valley of Oregon was the final destination of American pioneers who trekked west in covered wagons. You’ll see how beautiful this area is especially in May when the rhododendrons are in full bloom.
Imagine your days with no phones ringing, no family members demanding your attention, and no meals to cook, and receive stimulating, individualized instruction with classes limited to 5 students only. Imagine having this special time for yourself, where your days will be packed with valuable learning experiences including pattern fitting and designing, as well as working with fabric and fibers to create unique projects.
If you believe that your sewing suffers because of your lack of knowledge, or if you think your sewing skills have reached a plateau, these workshops are for you. With the limited student participation and individualized instruction that Glenda will provide, you will greatly improve.
