Attendance & Absences:
Punctuality:
and regular attendance is a must for your progression in sewing. All
students are expected to arrive on time for their class and conduct themselves
in an orderly fashion while on the premises.
Refund Policy:
There are NO refunds, deductions, or credits granted for any
missed class or camp, however Crafts of Chadds Ford/Love to Sew Studio offers a generous
make-up policy.
Make-up classes are available for any class missed due to illness, family
vacation, or personal conflict. Make-up classes are preferred to be taken within one month of
the missed class or prior to the missed class if you know when you will be
absent. However students have until May of each year to do their make-up
classes. To schedule a make up class, contact the studio.
School Closings:
Love to Sew Studio has students that are residing in more than
eight school districts. For
this reason, we may not be closed on the same days as your school. Any class that falls on a day
in which the studio has a holiday closing does not need to be made up. These
dates were accounted for in our payment schedule and are not considered "paid
classes".
In the event of inclement weather, it is your responsibility to call the studio
for details regarding class cancellations. You are always welcome to make up a
class if it is canceled for bad weather. Occasionally we will offer double
classes on a different date if bad weather occurs on a day when classes were
scheduled.
Class Tuition:
Tuition at Love to Sew Studio is based on; by the month, by the camp, or
by the project.
Weekly classes have a monthly fee which is based on four weeks a month from
September to the following May. We divide the sewing year up into two semesters,
Sept. - Dec., and Jan. - May. Each class is counted and calculated from
September to December. If holidays and snow days took effect during that time,
December fees will be adjusted accordingly. The same is done for May's fee once
January to May's fees have been calculated. You will be notified by e-mail for
the adjusted fees for December and May.
Sick Days or Family Vacations:
If your child is out due to an illness, personal reason, or family vacation, we
encourage your child to make up the time for several reason. One, because the
time was paid for, and we don't want the students feeling behind. Two, we
encourage and support perfect attendance and reward students for this at our end
of the year party.
Students Needing a Month or More Off:
We do not have a policy where a student must sew for an entire sewing year. Many
students have needed to take off a month or two for a sport, or school activity.
If you must take off a month please keep in mind that your return is based on
availability, and your spot may have been taken.
Information:
Love to Sew Studio
sends home newsletters and e-mails throughout the year to keep you informed.
Please read them carefully so you will have the needed information regarding
tuition, upcoming events, contests, new classes, etc. If you have any questions
throughout the year, feel free to e-mail us or give us a call. Our
website calendar is also a
valuable resource to find answers to your questions at any time.
Payment Options:
Tuition may be paid in full at the start of the season or you may choose to pay
month to month, or by the camp, or by the project (class). You may pay by
personal check, cash, Master Card or Visa, or PayPal. PayPal payments can
be made to Crafts of Chadds Ford.
Extra Notes & Helpful Hints:
If hair style is in the face, please keep hair secured tightly in a bun, braid,
or ponytail. Hair in they eyes can distract the vision for sewing and cutting.
Being Prepared: Students should be dressed comfortably and ready to sew. Shoes
must be worn at all times. Shoes must be comfortable and light for touching the
foot pedal of the sewing machine. Thick soles, heavy boots, and clogs are not
recommended.

Don't forget to bring your sewing bag to class!!!
