School Holiday Dates for December

Due to popularity of particular classes I have had to change the schedule, some have disappeared and some have been added!

Thursday, 14 December ’23

Overnight Bag 9:30am – 4pm This class is a beauty…my Overnight Bag, a smaller version so it’s easy for the kids to handle but it carries so much and looks stylish, classic and timeless. And the best thing is that this bag stores flat! Kids will be sewing in a zip, using interfacing and learning what it is. They will learn how to work with lining and how best to handle a lot of fabric. Cost is $195 and includes heavy good quality Navy corduroy, lining fabric, interfacing, thread, straps Navy & White or Navy & Red, ribbon, zipper and six hours tuition. Maximum 6 students. Must be a competent sewist (straight seam allowances a must). If your teen is keen, sews at school and home etc, please email or text me before booking in.

OVERNIGHT BAG PHOTO – Note, the Navy and White straps and the Navy and White straps, also the Navy corduroy.
