Kids Sewing Camp - Summer Break 2026 (Ages 8-12)



Looking for a creative and hands-on summer experience? Our Kids Sewing Summer Camp is perfect for young makers who love working with fabric, colour, and design!

Join us for a fun and inspiring week where campers will explore hand embroidery, other fabric crafts and machine sewing, create their own unique projects, and build confidence in their creative skills. Each day is filled with guided instruction, imaginative projects, and plenty of time to experiment and express personal style.

This camp is designed for ages 8–12 and welcomes all skill levels—whether your child is brand new to sewing or already loves to create.

Come stitch, design, and bring ideas to life this summer!

You bring with you:

Your enthusiasm and sense of fun and creativity!

If you have a sewing machine, you can bring it with you. If you are bringing your home machine, please remember to bring the manual (and foot pedal/power cord, and any accessories it came with).

We supply for you:

All materials and equipment are provided for each project. If you don't have a sewing machine, we will provide you with one.
