Kids Sewing Semester – Beginner 2 (Fall 2026)

For students who have successfully completed our Beginner 1 Sewing Semester.

Semester Dates: Begins the week of August 24, 2026 and concludes the last week of November 2026.

A minimum of 6 students is required for each class. If enrollment is too low, the class may be canceled.

What Students Will Learn

Beginner 2 is designed for students who are comfortable using a sewing machine and are ready to build on the skills learned in Beginner 1.

Throughout the semester, students will expand their sewing knowledge while learning more advanced construction techniques, including:

• Creating lined projects
• Sewing boxed corners
• Installing zippers with greater confidence
• Sewing buttons and buttonholes
• Improving accuracy and sewing independence
• Developing professional sewing habits and finishing techniques

Students continue to work at their own pace while being challenged with increasingly rewarding projects.

Planned Projects

Projects are subject to change based on class progress and material availability.

• Beginner Machine Skills 2
• Lined tote with pocket
• Lined zipper bag
• Water bottle holder
• Envelope pillow
• Bedroom basket with handles
• Composition book cover

Bonus Projects (time permitting):

• Button bracelet
• Insulated pot holder

Every child learns at a different pace, so while we strive to complete 7–9 projects each semester, we cannot guarantee every student will finish every planned project.

Class Schedule

• 1 class per week
• 10 weekly classes
• Each class is 1½ hours

One makeup class is held after the semester ends only for students who missed a class and have unfinished work. We are unable to offer additional makeup classes beyond the scheduled makeup week.

Illness Policy

If your child is feeling ill or showing any symptoms of illness, please keep them home. The included makeup class at the end of the semester allows eligible students to make up missed work while helping keep everyone healthy.

Tuition

$425 per student, per semester

Tuition includes:

• All fabric and project supplies
• Use of classroom sewing machines
• Professional instruction
