Adult & Kids Sewing – Open Project
Adult and child will work together on a project of their choosing. We will talk about your design ideas and the possible ways to execute them. Children wanting to learn how to sew will benefit from the help of a parent learning at the same time. This class is ideal for children who are not yet ready to sit at a sewing machine themselves. A great way for parent and child to spend time together.

Create an exact duplicate of your body using gummed paper. The personal dressform is a useful tool when fitting and draping garments. This workshop includes a demonstration and a dressform kit. The stand is not included with the kit. You will receive the necessary instructions to complete your dressform at home.
