Below are two options to add sewing as a summer activity.
Option 1:
Sewing camp - this group would meet for five class sessions for 75 - 90 minutes. The goal would be to learn the very basics, and make one simple project. The fee is $55.00 per student for the five-week session. Possible class days would be Wednesday or Thursdays - late morning or early afternoon.
Basic sewing supplies and project materials will be needed, as well as a portable sewing machine that would be brought to class each session.
This option would be the perfect way to become familiar with the sewing machine, learn a few sewing techniques, and prepare the student for the next level.
See location information highlighted below.
Option 2:
Sewing classes for beginning and intermediate students. The exact day has been set yet, but it would most likely be Wednesday or Thursday, morning or afternoon.
The fee is $95.00 per person for a nine week summer session. Each class will meet between 75 - 90 minutes, once a week. For those with busy summers, we could meet twice a week. I am open to various scheduling, depending on how many enroll and how much has to be worked around.
The location of the classes will be at the Morris Center - 146 Indian Ave, in Lawrence. I am open to holding classes in another Lawrence location, if a large enough group were to enroll and arrangements could be made to hold classes there.
Beginning Sewing:
The classes will cover hand and basic machine sewing. We will do one or two simple projects that will involve straight machine stitching. To get the most from the class, the students will need to practice newly learned techniques at home.
There will be worksheets, general sewing practice, and a project to be worked on inside and outside of class time. Assigned work is due the following week. A notebook, with all the weekly assignments, notes, vocabulary, worksheets, etc. will be part of the class.
Each student will need sewing supplies, a one-inch binder, a portable sewing machine that can be brought to class each week, and fabric/notions/etc. for an assigned project.
Intermediate Sewing:
These classes will continue where the beginning level left off. There will be more seam finishes and hand sewing techniques covered, as well as basic garment construction. One or two projects will be completed in this class. The format of this level will be much like the beginning level – worksheets, practicing new and old techniques, and project work to be done outside of class. We will continue to add to the notebook that was started in the beginning level.
There will be a minimum and maximum number of students per class offered. To get the most out of the classes, students should plan of practicing outside of class time.
