Bring extra needles and thread and bobbins... for your machine...
Linda has some great comments. Did you receive a supply list when you signed up for the class? If not I would ask for one. She may be going to give you a list at the first class with it being a beginning class. She may want to go over the supply list and show examples and make comments about different supply items. She should also be commenting the pros and cons of what she is suggesting. If in doubt I would give them a call and ask before your first class.

I tend to get thirsty in class. I always have my water or drink in a plastic bottle with a screw on lid. It is always closed except for when I'm taking a drink. This is to avoid spilling. If you have a special drink container make sure that it is capable of closing completely. Some travel mugs do not close completely.

Also depending on how long the class is some people take cushions for the chairs. I would wait until after the first class on this just to see how the room is set up.
