UPDATE JAN 6, 2026:
The response to our 2026 class posting over the Thanksgiving weekend was AMAZING and we are overwhelmed with gratitude. All 5 classes were mostly sold out before year end, with the final couple of seats selling out by January 3rd. We do keep a waiting list so if you missed out and would like to come, definitely add yourself to the waiting list for the class you want. 

Depending on our summer schedule I may add one or two classes in July and August. If I do we will notify everyone on the waiting lists first, so that is another good reason to add yourself to the list(s).

**********************************************

After keeping a very full teaching schedule for the last 15 years, we have scaled back the variety and number of classes for 2026. This may be the last year for classes, so if you have wanted to take one of our Featherweight classes be sure to sign up today!

Welcome to our workshop and classes page. Quilters Connection offers classes on maintaining and servicing your Singer Featherweight. These machines were designed and built to be oiled frequently. Why pay a service professional to do the work when you can have fun and save money doing it yourself! 

You will learn how to disassemble, clean, reassemble, lubricate, and adjust your machine for maximum performance. In 2026 we will have our popular two-day Advanced 221 Featherweight Workshop only twice this year. Our classes sell out FAST, so sign up soon! 

See below for class details.
