Sewing for Littles Workshop Series {and a SALE!}


Hey friends! I wanted to take a minute to tell you about our "Sewing for Littles" workshop series. I am SO EXCITED about these little outfits for boys and girls and about teaching you how to make them yourself! Clothes for these tiny babes are ex.pen.sive. Sewing for your children is one way that the skill really does save you money. For just over the cost of what either of these outfits would cost you at a children's boutique, you can learn to make them yourself and save so much money AND have custom adorable clothes. Making Ford's clothes is one of my great joys. It's just so sweet to wrap him in something that you put your time and skills in to. 



Our first Little Girls workshop is March 14-15 (Details HERE). This dress is adorable and fairly simple to make . This is an intermediate class, so you just need to know how to work your sewing machine and have some very basic knowledge of sewing to be prepared for this workshop. 



My favorite thing about this pattern is that it is so versatile! Think of all the fabric combinations or how lovely a solid color would be. You could also layer the dress with tights and a shirt and it would be perfect for fall. Also, this pattern is digital with great pictures and instructions. You can use it over and over again for sizes 3m to a girls 8! 



In this workshop you'll learn to make button holes, gather a skirt, finish seams, and tips on sewing garments for durable wear and wash

The cost includes small class instruction, the pattern, and some supplies. You'll just need to bring your fabric and sewing machine (but you can use one of mine if you like).

 We have scheduled another Sewing for Little Boys workshop for March 20th and 21st (Thursday and Friday evening- More details HERE!)  This is also an intermediate class, so same prerequisites apply here- know how to work your sewing machine and have some very basic knowledge of sewing.  
 
Can we talk about this jon jon? I love this pattern. It is lined and turns out so professional yet it is quick and easy to make! The pattern can be made long or short and can be used over and over (with a hand tip, I'll show you!) for boys 3m to 24m. 


In this workshop you'll learn how to make button holes, making covered buttons, lining a garment, how to use snap tape, and I'll give a demonstration on how to use your basic sewing machine to add an appliqué to clothes.

The cost of the workshop includes small group setting instruction, a great pattern, some supplies (covered buttons and snap tape) Bring your own fabric and sewing machine (or you can borrow one of mine!)


And the best news I have is that because we are nearing spring, and because these outfits were so fun to make, and because I want YOU to be able to make them too, we are knocking 20 dollars off the price!
