Trial Sewing Class for Kids

Curious about our sewing studio but not ready to dive into a full season? Join one of our trial classes on Saturdays and Sundays! It's the perfect opportunity to explore our workspace, test out our sewing machines, and create a stylish project to take home, for ages 5 through 12.

How it works:

• Each class date will work on a different beginner friendly project, please call to check projects for a specific date.
• All supplies are included!
• Our small sewing class size of 6 ensures everyone gets the attention they need to sew safely and complete their design. 
• Students ages 5-12 work individually on their own machine, on their own project. 
• Class begins with an introduction on how to use the sewing machine.
• Lots of colorful fabric options to choose from. 
  
• Get your trial class for free! After registration you'll receive a code for $69 off of a longer course (at least a $345 value) - simply use the code during online checkout or in our studio.
