    An informative delight!

    I could not ask for a better class! Each step was explained in depth and with a smile. Segments were divided up into smaller, very manageable lessons which is perfect to revisit if needed. I love Ellie’s positive, laid back style-it made learning fun and easy. I cannot recommend enough!! You’ll feel like a superstar for completing this beautiful bag successfully and with no stress .

    Awesome pattern

    I cut and sew up this pattern in 1 night. Took exactly 4 hours. I was using scrap fabric to test the pattern. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Even the parts I thought would be hard waere a breeze! Very happy I purchased this pattern and excited to make myself a proper version of this bag when I get supplies. Thank you Klum House! I hope to make every one of your bags one day!
