Home Decor Sewing Instructor
Everett, Washington

The Home Decor Sewing Instructor program does not teach you how to sew. It provides business training-specific to the home decor sewing industry-to help current sewing instructors, educators and businesses to succeed.

Graduates of HDSI course leave with the practical knowledge of a sense of confidence to begin and expand their education portfolio. Many graduates may go on to start home-based businesses, to teach part or full time in retail stores, or start their own sewing schools, or lounges.

The only pre-requisite to participate in the Home Decor Sewing Instructor Workshop is that you already know how to sew, and are interested in teaching your passion for sewing to others.
