Classes at Your Fairy Godmother
Come Create Something Beautiful
There is something special about making something with your own hands.
Whether you're learning to sew for the first time, discovering quilting, building skills you already have, or simply looking for an excuse to spend a little time creating, there's a place for you at Your Fairy Godmother.
Our classes are designed to be welcoming, practical, creative—and fun.
You don't have to know everything before you walk through the door.
That's why we're here.

Learn. Create. Grow.
Everyone Starts Somewhere.
Maybe you've owned a sewing machine for years but aren't quite sure what to do with it.
Maybe you've always wanted to make a quilt.
Maybe you already sew and you're ready to learn a new technique.
Or maybe you simply miss making things.
Whatever brought you here, our goal is to help you leave with more confidence than you had when you arrived—and hopefully something beautiful to show for it.

Project Classes
Let's Make Something.
Sometimes the best way to learn is simply to start creating.
Our project-based classes guide you through making a specific item while teaching useful techniques along the way.
You leave with new skills—and something you made yourself.

New to Sewing?
FIRST THINGS FIRST...
You Do Not Have to Be "Crafty."
You don't need years of experience.
You don't need a fancy sewing machine.
And you definitely don't need to already know what you're doing.
You just need to be willing to learn.
We'll take it from there.
Everyone who knows how to sew once didn't.

What Should I Bring?
We'll Tell You Before Class.
Every class is a little different.
The class description will tell you what supplies, fabrics, tools, or equipment you'll need to bring and what will be provided.
Some classes may require your own sewing machine, while others may have different equipment requirements.
If you're unsure whether you have what you need, ask us before you buy something.
We'd much rather help you choose the right thing than have you spend money on something you don't need.

Which Class Is Right for Me?
Not Sure Where to Start?
That's completely okay.
Tell us what you already know, what you'd like to learn, and what kind of projects interest you.
We'll help you find a class that makes sense for where you are now—not where you think you should be.

Learn Together
Bring a Friend. Make a Friend. Make Something.
There's something different about creating alongside other people.
You share ideas. You ask questions. Someone figures something out and shows everyone else. Someone makes a mistake—and discovers they're definitely not the only one.
That's part of the fun.
Our classes are about learning skills, but they're also about making space in a busy life to sit down, create, and enjoy the company of other people who like making things too.
Private & Small-Group Classes
Have Your Own Little Group?
Interested in learning with friends, a homeschool group, family members, or another small group?
Ask us about private or small-group learning opportunities.
Tell us what you'd like to learn and we'll let you know what's possible.
[ Ask About Group Classes ]
Have a Class Idea?
Tell Your Fairy Godmother.
Is there something you've always wanted to learn?
A project you'd love someone to teach?
A technique that keeps defeating you?
We want to know.
Some of our best class ideas can come from the people who walk through our door.
