裁縫の基礎初心者向けミニキャンプ

In this 2-day LIVE sewing camp, students will learn an important life skill, sewing. Students will learn sewing machine parts, sewing safety, some sewing terminology, how to sew straight stitches and finish camp with sewing a drawstring bag. Students will learn and work on measuring fabric, learn about woven fabric and cut fabric using scissors or a rotary cutter. Students will work independently or with an adult to measure, cut and/or sew straight lines and their final project, the drawstring bag. In this 2-day camp, I will walk students step by step through every stage of sewing our sewing basics. 

This is a great mini-camp for those who've never sewn before or are new to sewing. If your student is not in the age category this class is listed in, please send me a message so that I can be sure to make any necessary adjustments to the class.
