MARCH BREAK CAMP 2026 - THEME: COZY (7-14 yo)

2026 Theme: COZY

Our March Break Sewing Camp is a week-long creative experience for kids and teens who love to make things with their hands—or are ready to learn. Running Monday to Friday, this camp gives students the time, guidance, and confidence to complete real sewing projects they’ll be proud of.

This year’s theme is COZY, and we’ll be spending the week sewing quilts in the mornings and soft stuffies (plus accessories, time permitting) in the afternoons. Projects in both sessions are thoughtfully tailored to each student’s sewing level, so everyone feels challenged, supported, and successful.

• If your child is slightly outside of our age range (7-14 yo) and would like to attend please contact us. 
  
  
• Campers are required to have previously taken our prerequisite class - there are several dates available prior to March Break camp. This can be added to your cart at the same time as the prerequisite camp. 

What’s Included in March Break Camp!

• Use of sewing machines and other equipment

• Small-group instruction with a 4:1 student-to-instructor ratio

Why Parents Love This Camp?

This is more than a craft camp. Students build real skills, practice focus and patience, and leave with finished projects they made themselves—plus a big boost in confidence.
