Children’s after school classes–Sept 2026 thru June 2027. Payment options available.

$0.00

Our sewing classes are designed for children ages 6–17 and are made up of students with a variety of ages and skill levels. During the school year, class sizes are limited to 10-12 students to ensure plenty of individual instruction.

Our classes are skill-based rather than project-based. In their first class, students learn sewing machine safety, how to thread and operate their machine, and begin their first project—a reversible tote bag or drawstring bag. This bag will be brought back and forth each week and used to store their current sewing projects.

Our curriculum follows a “learn as you sew” approach, helping students build skills progressively while gaining an understanding of garment construction and sewing techniques. As students develop confidence and master foundational skills, they advance to more challenging projects and are encouraged to focus on creating clean, well-finished work. Along the way, students learn valuable techniques such as hemming, installing zippers, reading and following patterns, proper finishing methods, and much more.

Because every child learns at their own pace, our instructors provide guidance tailored to each student’s individual skill level, ensuring they remain challenged, engaged, and successful throughout their sewing journey.

 

Occasionally we will post photos on our social media or use them for our website. Please let us know below if we have permission to take photos of the student.

*By clicking I agree below I hold “In Stitches” harmless and not liable for any accidents that may occur while myself and/or my child is attending sewing class. I also understand that myself and/or my child will be closely supervised in class.

We offer several payment options to fit your family’s budget. Families who pay for the full year upfront receive our lowest tuition rate. For added flexibility, tuition may also be divided into three, or 9 monthly payments. Payment plans include a small convenience fee to cover the additional administrative costs of processing multiple payments. We will email you an invoice when payment is due each month/season. You are never commited to the entire year, only for what you have paid for. We never hold spots unless your class has been paid for for the following month/ season. payment is due at least 2 weeks before the next session.

What is allowance?? Although basic fabric is included in our prices, the allowance allows your child to expand their options. With their allowance they can use more high end fabrics which we will have as options and charge by the yard, we can offer embroidery, patterns (online and commercial), specialty zippers and hardware, and so much more! as your Childs allowance gets low, we will contact you. We will keep track of allowances in the studio as they use specific items.
