Kids Sewing: Beginners

Get ready for a creative adventure in our Kids' Beginner Sewing Class! Perfect for kids ages 6-10, this class introduces young sewers to the basics of sewing in a fun and supportive environment. Over the course of 6 weekly sessions, they’ll learn essential skills like threading a needle, operating a sewing machine, and working with patterns, while completing their very own simple sewing projects—like a pillow, tote bag, or stuffed animal! No experience is needed, and all materials are provided.

This hands-on class will inspire creativity and build confidence as kids discover the joy of making something by hand. Each session is filled with fun activities, personalized guidance, and lots of encouragement. By the end of the class, your child will be excited to show off their handmade creations!
