Tween and Teen Sewing Course for Absolute Beginners

The perfect introduction to the world of sewing for your teen and tween fashionistas!



10 to 17 years     6 x 1.5 hours Class size 3 to 4 guests       $310

In the world of fast fashion and social media, we want to create a creative space for tweens and teens to gain the knowledge and skills to make their own fashion accessories in a safe face-to-face learning environment where they can create and connect with their like-minded young community.
Course overview:
  • Session 1: Introduction to Sewing Machines, Tools, and Materials
  • Session 2: Threading your machine and making bobbins and Starting SEWING Project 1: Scrunchies
  • Session 3: Hand Sewing, Embroidery, and Embellishments
  • Session 4: Project 2: Making your own textiles!
  • Session 5: Coming together! Final Project 3: Drawstring Pouch using textiles you’ve made, either by embroidery or layering, Cricut vinyl decals etc.
  • Session 6: Open session, finishing off projects or practising techniques learnt
Throughout the course, all materials and tools will be provided, and teens and tweens will have a folio to keep track of their progress. By the end, they will not only have honed their sewing skills but also have unique creations to take home and show off to their friends.
If you are unsure if your tween or teen would be interested, they should try our taster class Sew Cool Accessories, which is a standalone workshop that shows them how to make a few small projects but doesn't go into depth into stitch types, techniques, and sewing machine skills.

All sewing machines, tools, fabric, and guidance to learn the basics of a sewing machine and hand sewing.
Knowledge required
Zilch! Just a keen curiosity to sew!
What to bring
Just themselves and their creative enthusiasm.
