Needle in a Haystack Class Policy

v  Pre-registration is required.  Be sure in your registration you include a contact number or email address.

v  In order to reserve your place in class, the class fee is due at the time of registration.    If you call or email in your registration, your place in class will be held for 4 days.  This allows enough time for your check to reach us or for you to make credit card arrangements. 

v  Only paid students may attend class.  Please do not ask to bring guests or your children to your class.  That is not fair to the other paying students, or the instructor. 

v  Supply lists are available prior to class.  Please pick up at time of registration.  Most can be emailed, as well.  In most cases, class supplies purchased at Needle in a Haystack prior to or during class will earn you a 10% discount. 

v  Basic sewing supplies for most classes include thread, needles, pins, seam ripper, scissors, as well as rotary cutter, mat and ruler. 

v  If trying to lug your sewing machine to class seems too much to handle, there are at least 3 Elna sewing machines available for classroom use.  Let us know prior to class that you need a machine reserved in your name.  

v  Notification of class cancellation by the student should happen no later than 5 days before the class.  No refund or credit will be given past the 5-day warning period.  Because we generally have a 3 student minimum size, this policy is in fairness to the teacher and the other students.  (Perhaps you can find a substitute to take your place if you must cancel .)

v  If the shop must cancel class then a refund of credit will be given for the class.

v  If the weather is bad, please call ahead and verify that your class will be held.  Your safety matters to us.

If you have any questions regarding class, registration, fees, supplies, etc.  call 620-736-2942 or contact us at needle@sktc.net.
