Frequently Asked Questiøns

  • For beginners, we recommend starting with either our Beginning Sewing Bundle, or our Fashion Design Bundle. In our sewing class, you will learn the building blocks of setting up your sewing machine, basic stitches, and constructing a garment. Have some experience sewing but want to sharpen your skills? Try our Intermediate Sewing Bundle. If you want to learn the full fashion design process, the Fashion Design Bundle is for you. You'll review concepts, sketches, technical flats, costing, and market assortment. Still unsure?

  • We have a 24-hour cancellation and rescheduling policy. Any classes canceled or rescheduled after this timeframe will count as one lesson. You can use the Acuity platform to make these changes. See our Terms of Service for more details.

  • Bundles are the best way to get the full learning experience. You'll get 10 full hours of instruction broken up into five 2-hour classes. Schedule your first lesson using the Acuity scheduling tool, and schedule the rest with your instructor.

  • We encourage all of our students to bring their own sewing machines and sewing supplies. We have sewing machines and other supplies at the studio for you to use, but you'll need to provide the pattern and fabric for your sewing project.

  • Our studio is by appointment only! If you have questions about the space or classes, please contact us at 312-210-0312 or email info@hovetfashion.com.

  • No, we are an independent studio created for hobbyists and people passionate about fashion who want to learn advanced fashion skills in an intimate environment without the lofty costs of college.

  • We don't currently have payment plans, but you can schedule individual a la carte lessons to pay as you go.
