Parent and Child Intro to Sewing

Our parent-child workshop is one of the most engaging sewing classes for children, designed to help families bond while learning the basics of sewing together. In this engaging 2.5 to 3-hour beginner sewing workshop, parents and kids get to bond in a fun, hands-on environment while learning the essential foundations of sewing. Whether you’re a mother-daughter duo, father-son team, or any caregiver-child pair, this experience offers a joyful and creative way to spend quality time together while making something you’ll both be proud of.

The session begins with a friendly and accessible introduction to the sewing machine. You’ll learn how to properly set it up, thread it, and operate it safely. No prior experience is needed, just curiosity and a willingness to try something new. Once you're comfortable with the basics, we move on to a beginner-friendly sewing project that’s simple, satisfying, and designed to be completed during the session. You’ll leave not just with a finished piece, but with new skills and a shared memory.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to set up and thread a sewing machine with confidence

  • Fundamental stitches and sewing techniques suitable for absolute beginners

  • Step-by-step instruction to complete a small creative project together

Whether your goal is to introduce your child to sewing or simply spend screen-free time doing something meaningful, this workshop is a great place to start.

Wonderfully Creative Bonding time!

My 9 year old daughter and I took this special class together and absolutely loved it! It’s fantastically instructive so you both are able to make your very own stylish bag without any prior knowledge of sewing. We both left feeling proud, connected and empowered! Thank you for this wonderful experience.
