Are there any ways to learn sewing as an adult in/near Boone County?

I'm looking to.pick it up sewing as a hobby for small projects, but I am only seeing shops in Ohio or Covington. I'd like to learn in person as opposed to online. I'd be willing to be tutored, if that's a thing, or join a class. I am literally at square one when it comes to sewing and am looking for some direction and foundational skills. 😄

Thanks in advance.

First, thanks to anyone who reads and takes the time to respond. I know time is a precious commodity, so thanks for yours. Now on to the ask.

As an adult, I feel like I just do not pick up on games as easy as I did as a child, and I thought I'd reach out to the community to see what ways you use to help solidify a new system in your mind - especially if you will be running it as I will be the ST/GM/DM.

The game is less important, but for "gee wiz" info, I'm looking at deciding between Call of Cthulhu, Traveler 2E (Mongoose), and Hunter: The Vigil. My hope, though, is that I can crack this code and just find a way to "do better", maybe I can try on a few.

A few knowns on my end and/or insights from my perspective, so that we are all on the same page:

1. Read the book(s) cover to cover. I get this. It is a given. But that alone is just not doing it for me as it did in my youth. Maybe it's the grind of life that I didn't worry about then. Who knows?

2. There is no right or wrong way. I get this. I'm not looking to cause a debate about how I should or shouldn't do things. I understand there are many methods. My hope in this post is to maybe learn from many of your methods out there, try on a few for size, etc..

3. I don't think digital is my go-to way to learn. I think I can leverage digital tools (OneNote, for example) and it may be a part of the process, but if I were to step into my time machine of learning in my youth, there were lots of note-taking and pencil & paper activities (in schooling and probably gaming) that formed my foundations.

And there we have it. Again, I appreciate each of you who ponder on this for a moment. I will be grateful for any information you provide. At the end of the day, we are all gamers and that's a pretty cool crowd to find a home in.

Cheers!

Update: Thanks so much for all of the kind and helpful advice. I have a lot to consider and appreciate all that been provided.
