Anderson Sewing School


I went to the open house on Sunday for the Anderson Sewing School. Barbara has organized classes for the next two months and the classes will continue to be scheduled in two month cycles until Summer.

She has gathered an impressive group of instructors. Some names will be very familiar-- Barbara Peterson, Tanaya Thomas, Dorita Reyen, Pat Henry, Valerie Schadt, Delbra Miller, and Rhea Parks will be teaching classes that cover almost every age group and type of sewing.

The message on her handout says:

"Greetings everyone. Winter has arrived. Living in the Central New York area, seems we just cannot escape Old Man Winter. Sew, we may as well make the best of it.

Here at Peterson Sewing School we will do our part by offering up some scrumptious sewing classes and workshops for the months of January and February.

Some of our new classes include: Beginning Knitting, Beginning Smocking, Fashionista club for kids (teens), Make Your Own Prom Dress or Evening Gown and sew much more!

We have a talented and gifted team of instructors who are excited about sharing their skills and talents with you.

Come join us for some fun, fashion and sewing.

Barbara Peterson


You can reach her at 315-446-4668
Classes are located on the corner of Euclid and Westcott Streets (920 Euclid Ave) in the Erwin First United Methodist Church which is across the street from ECHO.

On Thursdays there is a "Sit and Sew Cafe" 9am to 12 pm. so come on in and check out their course roster and register for a good class. I know I am interested in some pants sloper classes and a techniques class. There is truly something for everyone.
