When a pattern is required for class, each student is required to purchase their own copy of the pattern. Please respect copy right laws and DO NOT make copies to share. While we do our best to estimate the amount of time it will take to complete a class, more time might be necessary. Our policy is that anyone taking a class my stay as long as they wish or return another day at no charge. We want to make sure everyone has sufficient time to complete their project and we will help in any way we can.
