Sew Magarbo

I want to keep this gem my little secret, but I guess it’s always nicer to share. This place is awesome. The owner /​teacher, Precious, is super sweet and friendly but also no nonsense, knowledgeable, and approachable.
For context of this review: I am a hearty DIY person, and I have self-​taught rudimentary sewing skills. I was looking to gain solid fundamentals for making garments, so I searched for classes that would fit my learning needs, schedule, and budget. I checked out class schedules for JoAnn, G Street, various independent quilt shops in Fairfax County, and even Nova CC. I am so thankful I finally found Sew Magarbo; it fit all of my criteria. It has a modern vibe and different types and levels of classes and «bootcamp» workshops for youth and adults. Precious is a true educator and seems to care genuinely about her students’ learning. Highly recommend.
