Questions:
Q: Would this be appropriate for homeschool curriculum?
A: This would be perfect as a special course for homeschoolers, however it’s not accredited, or certified in any way. So we don’t know how it would work for ‘credit’ hours for your program. You’ll have to check on that.
Q: Is this based in Seattle, or is it done online?
A: It’s all completed online, so you can work in your jammies. 🙂
Q: Can I sign-up, and get the chapters, but work at my own pace?
A: Sure.
Q: Is this about creating patterns?
A: Nope, it’s about creating effective designs and will focus on actual – physical creating more than drawing.
Q: Do I need any additional software or special computer skills?
A: Nope.
Q: Do the chapters come via webinar, or online course somehow?
A: Nope, just a simple PDF File via email – super easy.
Q: Do I have to submit my completed exercises back to you for review after each chapter?
A: Nope, but if you want feedback, then you can.
Q: Do I have to be a good seamstress?
A: Nope, but you do need to be at least a beginner. We will ask you to actually make things.
