Joann Fabrics has some in-store classes again. The one near me is offering Intro to Sewing and Intro to Cricut. Have you used the Cricut or the Silhouette? I checked out a Silhouette from our local library and really liked it.
They also have take-home projects like this throw pillow project https://www.joann.com/decorative-bed-pillows/472234449P258.html
