Course Details

We love sewing for kids. You can really go to town and get funky with your designs!  Join our four part series designing and sewing children’s clothes. This course will completely change your outlook on buying new clothes for kids!

 

In This Workshop You Will Learn:

  • How to chose the right fabrics for your garment
  • Making the most out of your fabrics
  • Construction techniques and shortcuts for kids clothing
  • How to create button holes
  • Simple applique techniques to add detail
  • Tips and tricks for sewing neat hems and finishing details
  • Tips on how to re-purpose adult clothing into children's garments

 

What Will You Be Making?

This workshop is focused on making for ages 0-12 years old. We are flexible in terms of what you are making as you know your kiddos best! 

 

Patterns Available: 

We have a selection of patterns for you to use during the workshop including leggings, tee-shirts, pinafore dress, button up shirt, shorts, trousers and skirts in all sizes. You are of course welcome to bring your own patterns to work from as well.

 

Skill requirements: 

Basic sewing machine experience is required for this workshop.

 

Material requirements: 

You will be required to purchase fabrics for your chosen clothing projects. The Makehouse offers a 20% discount for students registered in this class. We will be in touch regarding what to buy once we know your pattern choices!

We always have lots of odds and ends of fabric and trims on hand for little details, so you really just need your main fabrics. You can also bring adult clothing that you wish to re-purpose if you prefer.

 

Equipment requirements: 

Please note that we provide a sewing machine and tools for you to use in the studio, but you are more than welcome to bring your machine from home. If you’d like to bring your home machine, please remember to bring the manual (and foot pedal/power cord).

 

Group size: 

We like to keep our workshops cozy and fun, so attendance is limited to 5 guests.
