Kids Sewing Semester – Fall 2026 For children ages 8 and up (students must be at least 8 years old by the first day of class). Semester Dates: Begins the week of August 24, 2026 and concludes the last week of November 2026. A minimum of 6 students is required for each class. If enrollment is too low, the class may be canceled. What Students Will Learn Perfect for students with little or no sewing experience! During the semester, students will learn the essential skills needed to sew with confidence, including: Sewing machine safety and operation Threading and caring for a sewing machine Sewing straight and curved seams Pressing seams correctly Reading and cutting simple patterns Understanding seam allowances Basic sewing techniques and construction methods Building confidence through fun, practical projects Students work at their own pace in a supportive environment while developing both sewing skills and creativity. Planned Projects Projects are subject to change based on class progress and material availability. Sewing machine safety & practice bookmarks Personalized project bag with appliqué letter Apron with pocket Zipper pouch Mini vertical book cover Reversible fabric basket Wrist wallet Bonus Project (time permitting): Scrunchie or key fob Every child learns at a different pace, so while we strive to complete 7–9 projects each semester, we cannot guarantee every student will finish every planned project. Before Your First Class Students should have basic scissor skills before enrolling. They should be comfortable: Holding scissors correctly Cutting straight lines Cutting around corners and curves Cutting simple shapes accurately Strong scissor skills help students work more independently and enjoy greater success in class.
