Welcome everyone! Thank-you for visiting my website! I love to teach others to sew. If you desire to learn how to sew or need some help and encouragement, then I would love to help you!! I teach in the greater Puget Sound area. Please scroll down and see a complete listing of what I teach and where. I will have a class list on my blog, paradisodesigns.blogspot.com that will be updated on a regular basis! You will see that many of my classes are open sewing where you can work on any pattern or project, and come to one or more classes to get you up and going on your sewing project. Please feel free to call or email me with any questions. paradiso designs by cheryl kuczek Studio/Home; 206.282.5149 Mobile: 206.405.0587 paradisodesigns.com paradisodesigns.blogspot.com Cheryl’s Sewing Lounge in Magnolia in Seattle Adults I teach adult sewing and jewelry classes at my Sewing Lounge in my house in Magnolia on most Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6-9pm. I also have some longer classes from 10am-4pm on Saturdays that allow you to get more done! I use an open concept, so you can work on whatever project you would like! I have everything if you forget a tool, or need thread, interfacing, etc. too!! Children I teach children’s classes at my sewing lounge every month September- June after school on Mondays and Wednesdays from 4-6pm. There is a new class starting each month during the school year, and summer sew camps in the summer. I will have the new summer sew camp schedule out at the beginning of March 2011.
