About the class

Let’s sew! Hand sew projects out of felt fabric. In this class, learn basic stitches, like running stitch, backstitch, and blanket stitch. Sew little animals, bags, and pillows. This is a beginner-friendly class!

NOTE: Kids may join in the middle of the month, but kids who join after February 5th may not complete all projects or may have to do a modified faster project.

Drop off at 3:30 PM and pick up at 5:30 PM. The Center is working on a consistent place for drop off and pick up. Until then, you will be notified where to drop off and pick up your child each week.
