Wuzup,
I'm a 23 year old fashion designer wannabe (read my other posts, please). I know how to draw, but am not that good at sewing. I'm currently taking a sewing class at a local fabric store (Hancock Fabrics) but it's not enough for me, because it's so short!!! Wednesdays only for 5 weeks (1 day out the week).I like it because it's teaching me something, which is better than nothing, but that's all i can find right now. I was thinking for a long time whether or not going through Penn Foster or Stratford Career Institute, but I'm hearing a few bad things about them... Stratford especially. I know it's better to have hands on experience when it comes to sewing, but I think these schools can still teach me SOMETHING through books and online. But I keep looking at people's reviews from these schools and some have good stuff to say about them, and the other half doesn't. So that's making me skeptical of whether I should go thru with it or not. I need someone's opinion that has been with these 2 schools, & other schools, too. What should I find out before I go thru with it? WHAT SHOULD I ASK? How are they when it comes to payments or cancelling, shipping, or shipping costs, fee, and alot of other stuff that I should know before I apply to these schools. If anyone knows from experience, or knows someone that been thru them, PLEASE HELP A SISTA OUT!! I will appreciate it!!
