Witch-Crafty Movie Night

​A cozy little, crafty little, snacky little Halloween movie night at the studio! We'll have snacks, crafty things, and a halloween movie for the girls (like practical magic, the craft, or the Addams family). Since this Kiki is FREE, I'll have a few treats and craft supplies ready, but feel free to bring a snack to share or a project to work on. Think chill vibes, with the girls which always ends up a little bit witchy. 🧙‍♀️

Lessons

A great way to get 1:1 support virtually or in person. I personally benefit so much from individualized attention and really see the benefit my students get from real-time problem-solving and instruction!

    (Minimum of 1.5 hours)
    Rate: $95/hr
    *sliding scale & payment plans available upon request

    Example: 1.5 hours on a random Tuesday


    This is good for people who:

    • Want to get set up on their machine and create a simple beginner project

    • Need individualized support to get past a roadblock

    • Are curious to see what sewing is about or determine if they actually like it

    • Want to work together but not commit to 10+ hours

I believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn, regardless of financial situation. If cost is a barrier: scholarships, sliding scale options, and flexible payment plans are available.

  • "I wanted to have more clothing making & mending skills for the impending apocalypse. Hillary is super knowledgeable and has a great sense of humor, a perfect guide in these dark times!"

    Anna

  • "It made me look at my wardrobe in a new light. I don't feel like buying anything new anymore, and when I'm thrifting, I'm not intimidated by clothes that don't fit."

    Joni

  • "Hillary is super knowledgeable and never a gate keeper. She wants to share anything and everything that she knows with her students, and does so in a way that's super accessible."

    AC

  • "Was nervous before the class because it’s been years since I’ve taken any type of class but immediately felt relaxed with Hillary. She was chill, funny, relatable, and I learned so much more than I expected."

    Lori

  • "You’ll definitely learn a lot and come out of class with new skills. I think of helpful tips Hillary has taught me whenever I sew now!"

    Deb

  • "Class with Hillary feels like a friend encouraging you to 'just go for it.' She explains everything super clearly and you can ask her anything at all. I felt more capable leaving each class."

    Alyssa

  • "Hillary keeps the class moving forward while providing lots of individual encouragement and answering questions!"
