One place per machine, sold online. A wet Saturday fills the studio, and the count on the page never promises a bench you do not have.
Online booking
A learner chooses the Thursday evening class, claims one machine and sees the number left drop. Nothing can be booked past the last machine.
Learn moreOne shared timetable
One timetable holds each class, the tutor taking it and the machines already claimed, so an open studio hour never overlaps a taught session.

Nobody in the room has wound a bobbin before. Cap the class at the machines you can thread first thing, so no learner starts on a dud.
One dress, eight weeks. A weekly standing booking keeps the same learners on the same Thursday night from the toile through to the hem.
Laying out a pattern needs table space, not a treadle. Cap the class at the layouts the cutting table takes, rather than the machines along the wall.
Everyone brings something that almost fits. One machine each, a short class, and the count on the page is the count in the studio.
Threading, tension, a straight seam and a buttonhole. Strictly one learner per machine, with booking closing on the last free one.
A hen group or a work team takes the studio for an afternoon. Quote it, then hold every machine in the room under one booking.
A week in the July break for teenagers making something wearable. Dated sessions, capped at the machines, with a reminder the night before.
Regulars bring their own project and take a machine for a couple of hours. Places count down exactly as they do in a taught class.
Rain fills the studio. The cap you set is the number of machines you own, so the wet Saturday never sells a bench twice.
Sell a one-off class, a weekly place for a regular and a whole dressmaking course as a standing booking, side by side on the same timetable. A quote covers a private group that wants every machine at once.

Schedule
The beginners night at eight of eight, the garment course mid-run and the overlocker night still two short all read off one view, so you can see where the bench is idle before the week starts.
Instant booking
Places are set to the machines that class uses, and the count drops as bookings land. The eighth booking closes the night, so nobody arrives to share a machine and finish nothing.
Get paid
The class fee is charged as the place is taken, so pattern and calico packs are bought against money already in. A private group course goes out as an itemised quote instead.
Less admin, more bookings
The day shows each class, the tutor on it, how many machines are still free and which places are already paid for.
The number on the page is the number of machines still free. When it reaches nothing, online booking for that class stops.
With Pro the card is taken as they book. On Free, cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand. The place shows as paid either way.
Set up in minutes. 200 bookings a month free, no card needed.
One app for every booking
The class is set to the machines you can genuinely run. Each confirmed place takes one off, and the last machine closes booking rather than stretching it.
Turn on a confirmation and a reminder ahead of the class so every learner has the time and the fabric list, without anyone being rung the night before.
Yes. Capacity is a number you set, and each confirmed place counts against it. The last machine closes booking, so no learner arrives to find no bench.
Yes. A single booking can take more than one machine place, and every one of those places comes off the same capacity, so the public count stays right.
Yes. A weekly or monthly standing booking can end never, end on a chosen date, or end after a set number of sessions. It is on the Free plan.
The machine place returns to the count, so the class shows one more free bench and everyone looking at the page sees the same corrected number.
Yes. Enable the confirmation and the reminder and each learner is emailed the time and the practical details. Both start switched off until you enable them.
On Pro, the full class fee is taken by card as the place is booked. On Free, cash and bank transfer are recorded by hand against the same booking.
