Ready to start your sewing journey? In this fun hands-on 2-hour workshop, kids ages 8–12 will learn the basics of sewing machine operation, threading, and safe practices. With step-by-step guidance, participants will practice beginner-friendly techniques such as straight and curved stitching, backstitching, and pivoting corners. By the end of class, each child will complete a small project to take home—building confidence, creativity, and the skills to begin sewing independently. It’s the perfect introduction to a lifelong skill!
