Sell a place per machine rather than a vague number of seats, and let a six-week course hold the same Tuesday evening from toile to finished hem.
Online booking
Someone picks the Tuesday evening class, takes one machine and sees the number left fall. Once the last machine goes, that class quietly closes.
Learn moreOne shared timetable
Each class, the tutor taking it and every claimed machine sit on one timetable, so a course and a one-off workshop never want the same bench.

Nobody has threaded a machine before, and two of them will need it done for them. Cap it at the machines you can set up beforehand.
One garment across six weeks. A weekly standing booking keeps the same eight people on the same evening from the toile to the final fitting.
A pattern layout wants table space rather than a machine. Cap the class at the layouts the cutting table honestly takes side by side.
Everyone arrives with a garment that nearly fits. One machine each, a short evening, and the count on the page matches the room.
An hour on threading, tension and a straight seam. One person to a machine, and booking shuts as the last one is claimed.
A hen party or an office group takes the whole studio for an afternoon. Quote it first, then hold every machine under a single booking.
A half-term week of teenagers making something they will wear out. Dated sessions, capped at the machines, with a reminder the day before.
Regulars bring their own project and take a machine for two hours. Those places count down exactly as a taught class does.
The cap is the number of machines you can thread, not an optimistic round number. A full class simply stops selling places.
A one-off Saturday workshop, a weekly place for a regular and a whole term course as a standing booking can all sit on one timetable. A quote covers a private group asking for the studio to itself.

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 lists each class, the tutor taking it, the machines still free and the places already paid for, in one place.
Customers see the real number of machine places left. When that reaches nothing, the class stops taking bookings online.
With Pro the card is taken as they book. On Free, cash and bank transfer are written down by hand. The place reads 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 actually thread. Every confirmed place takes one off, and the final machine closes booking rather than stretching it.
Switch on a confirmation and a reminder before the class so everyone has the time and the fabric list, rather than half of them turning up empty-handed.
Yes. Capacity is a number you set, each confirmed place counts against it, and booking closes on the last machine instead of one hopeful place beyond it.
Yes. One booking can take more than one machine place, and each of those places comes off the same capacity, so the public number stays accurate.
Yes. A weekly or monthly standing booking ends never, ends on a date, or ends after a chosen number of sessions, and it is on the Free plan.
The place returns to the machine count, so the class shows one more free bench and the next person to look sees the corrected number.
Yes. Enable the confirmation and the reminder and everyone receives the time and the practical details. Both are off until you switch them on.
With Pro they pay the full class fee by card as they book. On Free you record cash and bank transfer by hand against the same booking.
