I guess I'm spoiled!! I take my classes at the local shop and they provide mats and cutters, irons and boards, comfy chairs and nice machines!! You can bring your own machine if you want. I take my own scissors and ripper, stuff for my machine. You need your own thread, pins markers, etc., but the shop is always open too! I always take a travel mug because worse than spilling something on my own project would be spilling on someone else's :shock:
