Classes & Workshops

Come Sit, Stitch and Sew and Mulberry!  

You can register by phone using a credit card or come by Mulberry Silks and pay by cash, check, or credit card. Class fees must be paid in full when you register. If a class is cancelled by the instructor, a full refund will be given. If you cancel, we can refund your class fee only if you notify us at least seven days before the first class. We’re sorry, but if you miss a class we cannot reschedule it nor can we make any fee adjustment.

Fabrics and supplies must be purchased from Mulberry Silks prior to the date the class begins. We do offer our students a 10% discount on all supplies required for your project(s). In most cases, you will need to wash and dry your fabric before the first class, so come in and get a materials list, browse the store, and get started!
