School Based Sewing Program

 

 

Let’s jump into the exciting world of sewing! In this club we use both our hands and our handy machines to make oodles of fun projects that may include emojis, pajamas, aprons, messenger bags, zipper totes, infinity scarves, monsters and much, much, more. On the first day of class we survey our young sewists to come up with projects that are both fun and challenging for their experience level and interest. No experience necessary and all supplies/fun will be provided.

What Will They Make?

Oodles of fun stuff! We like to take into account the interests and experience of our students in each class. On our first day, we do a fun starter project. We then ask what they are interested in making over the course of our time together. After that, the sewing world is ours to play in, while fitting in as many fun sewing projects as we can! Some previous projects have been:

  • Pillows with secret pockets
  • Monster Stuffies
  • Messenger Bags
  • Circle Skirts
  • Pajama Bottoms
  • Bow Ties and Ties
  • Shirts
  • Towels with Animal Hoods
  • Infinity Scarves
  • Tote Bags
  • Holiday Gifts
  • Phew...the list goes on and on!
