Transcript

Free sewing classes by immigrants for everybody. Because big companies have chosen a side and many of them have chosen against best. So it's time to vote with our hearts. Oh. You got it? Because it's free. 40 And 30 Broadway in Manhattan a day. I made this shirt in class as well. So in, like, two, three hours. I learned basically how to make the whole thing. Like, prior to this class, I would not have known how to put pants together or I mean, I still kinda don't know how to do tier cuff, but it's fine. We're learning and that's okay. And now, like, I can measure my body and make pants that fit my body. Tier even gives away supplies to his students. Like, for example, this sewing machine, she won it in a raffle. He also accepts and relies on donations. For more information, you can visit his website. These are just some of the designs that his students have made. We love everything about this. We actually love it so much that we're actually thinking of coming with our mom, so don't be surprised when he catches into these classes too.
