Where is You’re Sew Creative! located?
YSC is currently located at 308 SE Jackson Street, Roseburg, Oregon. However, as of May 1st YSC will be located at 528 Agee Street.
How old does my child have to be to take classes?
YSC takes students that are from 8 to 16 years old.
Does my child need to bring a sewing machine?
No. I provide all the supplies your child will need, including a sewing machine.
How much do classes cost?
Classes are $24 per 75-minute lesson. HOWEVER, if you sign up BEFORE May 1st, you will be charged only $22 per lesson through September.
Do I pay for my child’s classes each month or can I pay each week?
I leave this up to you. You can pay one month at a time by the week if you wish.
I have more than one child who wishes to sign up for a class. Will they both have to pay the same rate?
No. If your children wish to sign up for the same class (same time and date), you will be charged full price for one child and 50% off for the other child(ren) living in the same household. However, if your children attend at different times, I may be able to offer the sibling discount provided certain conditions are met each week. Feel free to discuss this with me if this fits your situation.
My child is interested in taking a class, but can’t come every week. Can other arrangements be made?
Yes, I have made exceptions in the past for students to attend only 3 or even 2 lessons per month (every other week). Students will be expected to attend the agreed-upon number of lessons each month or schedule make-up lessons should any be missed. Otherwise, I may not be able to hold your child’s spot.
Can I drop my child off or am I expected to stay while she/he is in class?
Parents are encouraged to stay for the FIRST lesson if they wish, but after that (unless other arrangements have been made) it is generally preferred that parents do not stay while their child is in class.
How many students will be in my child’s class?
I have found that the most effective student to teacher ratio is, at most, 3 to 1. With only one teacher, classes will be very small. Your child may be the only student or could have as many as two classmates in attendance with him/her. However, once another teacher or helper is hired, classes may be as large as six students. It is not expected classes will grow to be larger than that.
