We help Sewing machine owners go from not using their sewing machine, not knowing where to start, and feeling uninspired to being excited to be using their machine, completing projects,  and having the ability to adapt projects to align with their creative vision.

CLUB MEETINGS 
Pfaff Club (1st Sunday of the month)
Please note you do not need to own a Pfaff to come to the meetings, we do demonstrate on the Pfaff and show feet or stitches on the Pfaff but they can be translated to your machine brand.
Members share items that they have made or ask for advice if they are having a problem with a project they have been working on. For our demonstration, we pick a commercial pattern and explain how to make the project. We use the Pfaff sewing machine and show different feet and techniques that can make the project easier. A tip sheet is provided of the lessons we learned during completion of the project. We also make a step-by-step video that you can watch on the members site when you are making the project. When the directions say to read and understand the instructions prior to starting the project, why not watch us follow the instructions instead? 
Each meeting is recorded so you can watch it later if you are unable to attend. 

Viking Club (2nd Saturday of the Month)
Please note you do not need to own a Viking to come to the meetings, we do demonstrate on the Pfaff and show feet or stitches on the Viking but they can be translated to your machine brand.
Members share items that they have made or ask for advice if they are having a problem with a project they have been working on. For our demonstration, we pick a commercial pattern and explain how to make the project. We use the Husqvarna Viking sewing machine and show different feet and techniques that can make the project easier. A tip sheet is provided of the lessons we learned during completion of the project. We also make a step-by-step video that you can watch on the members site when you are making the project. When the directions say to read and understand the instructions prior to starting the project, why not watch us follow the instructions instead? 
Each meeting is recorded so you can watch it later if you are unable to attend. 

Software/Embroidery Club ( 1st Wednesday of the month)
All of our lessons are written or adapted for the latest mySewnet embroidery software. Many of the projects may be done on earlier versions of Husqvarna Viking or Pfaff software, but all images will be from currently available versions.  We send the instructions early so that you have a chance to read through them prior to the class. Projects are provided by mySewnet educational staff or developed by our own staff at El Cajon Sew & Vac. The class will be either a software project, to create or manipulate an embroidery design, or an embroidery project to stitch out a design using the machine. We cover the project, step by step, answering any questions that may arise.
Recordings of previous classes are available to watch as many times you wish.
