Cloth Carousel Kids Summer Sewing Camp Instructions
Kids 8-14 will have a blast learning all kinds of different sewing skills during this 4-day camp! We will cover the following skills and projects:
- Get to know the sewing machine
- Learn to wind a bobbin and thread a sewing machine
- Sewing worksheets daily to learn accuracy
- Lined Drawstring Backpack
- Water Bottle Sling
- Boxy Zipper Pouch
- Create your Own Emoji Pillow
- Letter Banner (if we have extra time)
Supply List:
Because this is a unique class being more than one day, etc. we will handle
supplies in a different way. Each day, your student will pick their fabrics
and we will put their purchases on account. Parents can then pay for the
fabric at the end of camp that day. Students will receive a 10% discount on
supplies purchased for camp. Attached you will find a list of supplies needed
so that if your student has fabric at home, they can bring it if they wish.
Fabric: must be 100% cotton, at least 42-45” wide.
Sewing machines, scissors, thread and pins are provided
