School holidays and after school sewing

26 November 2025 by Danielle

School holiday sewing

 

 

 

 

Not sure where your sewing enthusiast should start?

We’ve broken it all down for you:

 

Kids Level 1✨ Start Their Sewing Journey for 9–13 Year Olds ✂️

Our Level 1: Beginner Basics workshop is the perfect starting point for children aged 9–13.

This hands-on class is designed especially for beginners. No experience is needed – just curiosity and a willingness to try something new.

 

Kids Fabric Baskets🧵 Level 2: Fabric Baskets

If your young sewist has already completed our Level 1 Beginner Basics, they’re ready to take the next exciting step! Our Level 2: Fabric Baskets workshop is running this January and 3 hours of fun!

Prerequisite: Completion of Level 1 Beginner Basics.

 

Kids Tote Bag🧵 Level 2: Tote Bag

Another for those that have already completed our Level 1 Beginner Basics. Come join us for Level 2: Tote Bag, a fun workshop for young sexists ready for their next challenge! Perfect for carrying books, snacks, or all your holiday treasures. 

Prerequisite: Completion of Level 1 Beginner Basics.

 

Kids Donny Bag🎒 Level 3: Donny Bag – A New Challenge 

If your young maker has been building their sewing skills with us and is ready for something more advanced, the Level 3: Donny Bag workshop is the perfect next step. 

Prerequisite: Completion of Level 1 & Level 2.

 

3 Day Sewing Basics🧵 3 Days of Creativity & Skill-Building: for 13–17 Year Olds

Looking for a meaningful, hands-on program for teens these school holidays? Our Sewing Basics 3-Day Course is designed especially for young adults aged 13-17. Across three immersive 4 hour workshops, students will learn essential sewing techniques step by step.

 

🧵 After-School Learn to Sew Program – 6 Weeks of Skills, Confidence & Creativity

Starting in February, students learn how to thread and operate a sewing machine, sew seams, finish edges, follow simple instructions, and work safely and confidently. Participants make three projects over the six weeks. Each class builds on the last, and allows them to grow more independent with every session.

We’re running two age groups:
✨ Tuesdays: 9-12 year olds
🌟 Wednesdays: 13-17 year olds

Small class sizes mean plenty of guidance, encouragement, and space to learn at their own pace. Both programs are from 4pm.

After School Program for 9-12 year olds     After School 13-17
