Kid's Class-Sunday Session
This session of classes is for a beginner sewist who has had experience sewing. This student should know the basics of their sewing machine and have experience threading their machine and sewing in a straight line. If your child does not have these foundational skills, not to worry, we suggest they take our Beginner Sewing classes and then they will be prepared for these Sunday classes.
Your child will need a sewing machine for these classes. We do recommend that they have their own machine, however, we do have machines that they can rent for $25. If your child is bringing in their own machine it needs to be in full working order. For each class please bring in the sewing machine, power cord, and machine manual.
If you have any questions about what classes would be best for your child or about machine rentals please call us at 603-898-0777 and we are happy to assist you.

Policies
In an effort to assure that each student gets the attention of our teachers, we pay close attention to the size of each lesson and class that we put on our schedule. Because of this, our class sizes are typically small. We recommend that you reserve your space as soon as you can. You can sign up for classes online, in store, or over the phone. You can sign up for lessons either over the phone or in the store.
It is very important that you read the details of each class description. Within the class description, you will see the items that you will need for the project as well as the skill level for that class. Some classes, you will need to have certain things prepared for the class, so it is very important to carefully read the description.
Class Cancellations:
If you are unable to attend a class, lesson, or event that you have signed up for we ask for a 48-hour notice. If you let us know 24 hours before the class, we will issue you a store credit for the price of the class. If you do not let us know before the 48-hour time period, you will forfeit the cost of the class. This applies to lessons that you are paying for.
Lesson Cancellations:
With every machine purchase at Angels (with the exception of a longarm and mutli-needles) you get 6 FREE lessons. If you do not call to cancel your lesson within 48 hours of the lesson you forfeit that lesson. This means that the missed lesson will be counted as one of your 6 lessons.
Registration Policy:
We need a minimum of 3 students to hold a class or lesson. Payment must be made in advance to hold your place and insure the minimum enrollment. All classes will be held in our classroom, located in the store.
Weather-Related Class and Lesson Cancellations:
Angels values the importance of our customers safety and will close the store during inclement weather if necessary. Angels follows the Salem School District for weather-related closures. We DO NOT follow the school for delayed openings. If you are scheduled for a class or a lesson on a day that the weather is questionable, you can either go by the listing of the Salem School district or check our Facebook page, and whenever possible, we will call and/or email all customers who are scheduled for a class or lesson on a day that we close the shop. If we do close the shop due to the weather, we will credit your account for that class and try to get you rescheduled as soon as possible.
