Summer Sewing 2022

 


    Good news, my summer sewing camp schedule is ready.  I will be offering Beginning Sewing Camp the week of June 13, July 11 or August 1.  Earn your sewing machine "driver's license" with this beginning sewing class. After learning the basics of operating a sewing machine, you will make a Patchwork Pillow, a Drawstring Bag and a Book Bag using the Avery Lane Designs program. Come learn from a Trained Sewing Educator in a small size class that allows for personal attention. All supplies are included.  The cost is $250.


     I also have intermediate camps for those who have finished the beginning sewing.  The first one is Purse-onality Fun 7 the week of June 20.  The cost is $180.  In this class you will make a purse, tissue holder, coin purse and a matching billfold. Just a yard of double faced pre-quilted fabric plus a few other supplies will be all you need.


     The next camp offered is Color Me Crazy the week of July 18.  The cost is $225 and includes a kit with glues, dyes, etc.  Have fun with unique dyeing ideas. We will be using glue, markers, dyes, bleach and shaving cream. Learn different ways to create unique fabrics. We will use some pre-made garments but you will also sew a pillow and a mini wallet with the fabrics we create. Be prepared to get messy .


     Next on the calendar is Travel Time the week of July 25.  The cost is $190 and includes the vinyl for the projects.  Going on a trip? Even if all you are going to do is stay overnight at grandma’s house, these trendy travel accessories will let you travel in style. We will start with a roll up travel case for your necessities, then make a luggage tag, a cord ‘taco’ and a vinyl zipper bag. Have fun with mixing and matching fabrics.


     The last camp is Sport Your Own Sport Bag the week of August 8.  The cost is $220 and includes the pattern, fabric and thread.  Ready for something new this year? You will sew a large sport bag (23 x 10 x10) including a shoulder strap and mesh pocket. Everything is included except for your basic sewing supplies. You tell me the color combo you want and everything will be here for you the first day.

     These camps all run from Monday thru Thursday from 9-12.  


     There is also a one day camp on June 27 from 9-2.  It is Baking Bread and Keeping Cool.  The cost is $85 and includes food.  We will bake some bread using a bag as a mixing bowl. To be sure we don’t get burned, we will sew a hot mitt and a potholder. Yum – fresh baked bread with butter and jam.
