***This section is for all kids -- not just beginners -- this quarter! Students who are not beginners will choose their own projects just as in a regular Spool School PHL class.***
In our weekly sewing classes for beginners, students learn basic sewing skills and work through beginner-friendly projects together with their classmates. Guided instruction ensures that students learn foundational skills to build upon as they become more experienced in sewing. We'll take a vote on project ideas on the first day so students can have a say in what they make!
This class is for students age 8+ who are beginners at sewing or who could benefit from a structured setting where all students make the same project alongside each other. Don't worry, there will still be time sprinkled in for Free Sew! We keep classes small (max. of 6) so that each student gets ample instruction, attention, and encouragement. All are welcome in this space and are encouraged to be their truest selves.
Materials and equipment are included.
At checkout, *if you're new to Cut & Sew*, please include the following information in the "Notes" section:
