A Cut Above Class 3--ScanNCut Summer 2026

A Cut Above Class 3--ScanNCut

If you have another cutting machine, come to Ayden and learn why the Brother ScanNCut is the best for prepping pattern pieces on August 12.

Join our session from 10 AM-12 PM Wednesday.  We'll get you familiar with your new (or old) friend.
