Learn to Sew
 A while back I saw that Michael's Crafts was hosting a pattern making class for only $20. I wanted to attend but unfortunately sometime came up and I missed it.

However I thought it would be good to mention that JoAnn Fabric also offers classes in a few of their stores (see which ones here). They have A TON of options ranging from cake decorating to fleece robes to knitting and crocheting.

Here's a link to their latest flyer with all of their current classes. Some of them are a little pricey, mostly the sewing classes. But if you've never worked with a pattern before and can't figure it out on your own, taking the class could help you to learn, which to me, is worth $75.
 k. green said... did you get paid to post this?

I get a lot of comments from readers who say they can't figure out a pattern.

When I saw this at JoAnn's I thought it might be a nice tip to pass along.

If I can give some information to my readers that they find useful and will improve my site I'll include it in the blog. That to me is pay enough.
