You’re Sew Clever!

In this class, we teach the fundamentals of sewing, giving kids new skills and the sense of accomplishment that comes with saying "I made this!" We start with basic techniques like hand-stitching and replacing buttons, before moving on to using a sewing machine to make actual wearable items.
