“No matter how big or small, short or tall (Cato), there are a lot of experienced trimmers in these classes,” said Justin. “It’s not only knowledge from me and Cato, but also from many other experienced trimmers that come and join us in this intensive learning environment. It’s three days of hands-on learning, sharing of knowledge, and camaraderie.”

This isn’t the first time Phil and Justin are hosting a “Bitchin Stitchin” event. They held several last year that covered a range of topics, including custom seats, headliners, carpets and more.

The use of materials and techniques to apply them are next level.”

Trimmer Troy Swarvar, had a similar experience: “It’s a great class and experience for upholsterers of all skill levels, JS and Cato are some of the best in the business with a wealth of knowledge. Why not learn from some of the best?”
