Our Summer Sewing Camp is for kids ages 8+ and takes place Mondays through Fridays from 8:30am - 11:30am each day. Each week allows up to 6 students with 2 instructors or up to 4 students with 1 instructor.
Learn the proper way to stitch continental and basketweave stitches, how to tack in and out of the canvas, and how to read and properly stitch with the grain of the canvas.
Over two sessions, you will learn: basic block piecing, sewing blocks and rows together, adding borders, sandwiching, quilting, and binding. Yes, really! You can choose a quilted cushion cover, a small table topper, or a baby quilt*; we will be starting with pre-cut squares to make it easier.
