Intro to Sewing- Tuesday PM (2025/2026 School Year)

This class is great for children who are wanting to learn how to use a sewing machine. In this class, students will gain experience in threading a machine, taping together a patten, cutting out project pieces, pinning, following pattern instructions and sewing their projects. Sewing is a great way to build confidence, practice patience, and is a great way to exercise their creativity. Ages 8-13

We will meet on Tuesday evenings from 6:15-7:45. This class runs from September-May with breaks for Christmas/New Years, and spring break. 

Term 1: September 2nd-November 25th (18 hours of instruction) ***Due to a prior scheduling conflict, there will be no classes on Tuesday, September 9th***

We will follow Southeast Polk's school calendar and will cancel classes due to weather if there is a closure for the school district. Classes missed due to a weather closure will be available for make-up. Classes missed by students for sick days will not be available to make up. 

***Fabric is not provided for these classes*** A supply list will be emailed after signup or please feel free to message me with any questions ahead of time. 

Students will also participate in a volunteer project in the fall and in the spring. (This will be done during one of our class sessions.) Volunteer projects will be chosen by Miss Ashley, and fabrics for these projects will be provided. Some examples of these projects are sewing mittens and hats to send to shelters, making beds for ARL animals, blankets for NICU babies, etc. This is a fabulous opportunity for your child to learn the importance of giving back.
