Important Details
- You will not be considered registered for a class until you have paid for your spot in full. Please pre-register for the class in advance. Should you have difficulties registering, please contact us for assistance.
- We understand that a registrant may not be able to attend a class for any number of worthy reasons, but to ensure that classes do not have to be cancelled at the last minute because of withdrawals, no refunds or credits will be issued unless the class is cancelled by Bolts2Blocks. If we are given enough notice and are able to fill your spot, we can then offer you a refund or store credit.
- PLEASE CHECK YOUR CLASS SUPPLY LIST AND PREPARATION INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO ATTENDING CLASS. COME WITH YOUR CUTTING DONE AND ALL SUPPLIES REQUIRED.
- Supplies specified on the class requirements list are all available at Bolts2Blocks. You will be given a 10% discount off any class supplies requested by the instructor when purchased at our shop. If a specific product is listed, please do not make substitutions. Occasionally, our instructors modify the supplies, or fabric amounts from those indicated on the pattern. This is typically to your benefit.
- Make sure that all supplies are labelled and identifiable as yours. Bolts2Blocks is not responsible for items lost or misplaced during class.
- Please ensure that your machine is in good working order prior to class. It is expected that you know how to operate your own machine. If necessary, we can arrange for a private lesson on the use of your machine. Please bring your owner’s manual to each class, just in case.
- During the winter months, please don’t forget to bring slippers or indoor shoes to class.
