Kids Sewing Club

Learning to sew at a young age is a wonderful skill to master, it encourages creativity, mathematical skills, logical thinking, and fine motor skill along with an ever-growing consciousness of the ethical and environmental impact of the fashion industry of this era.

 

Is your child between 9 and 15 years old and enjoys making things? Then we are sure to have a sewing class that they will love! We run an after school sewing club for children. Each week children will work on new projects. Some projects might take some children to stretch it our two weeks to complete as well. As each child is unique in their own way, they take their unique time to complete each project.

Sewing assists in developing good hand/eye co-ordination, manual dexterity, stimulates the creative imagination and aids in project planning. It gives a sense of achievement and self-worth. I believe that it’s such an important life skill that all children should learn be it girls or boys.

However, it’s important that they get suitable sewing lessons.  My sewing lessons for children focus firstly on safety. Then we do some fun exercises to learn how to use the sewing machine. Easy children’s sewing projects are fun and are a great way to learn basic sewing techniques.

There are only a small number of children in each class so each can receive lots of attention and they are carefully supervised.

 

What will they make?

Lots of fun projects from: Appliqué cushions, tote bags, pencil cases, buntings, felt greeting cards, stuffed animals, heart key rings, tutu’s, clothes appliqué, felt brooches and simple sewing projects. We are constantly introducing new and different projects to keep our creative sewing bees engaged.
