Kids Classes & Camps Fall 2010
At the Quilter’s Market, we’re committed to teaching kids
how to sew! Besides being a basic life skill, sewing
something tangible and beautiful with one’s own hands is a
satisfying and rewarding experience that can be enjoyed
your whole life. Come join Kitty and Susan for
lots of fun, some learning and have a beautiful quilt or other
project to show for it!
Our classes are designed for children age 7 or older. The
child should have taken the Kids Basic Sew or already have
experience sewing on a machine before taking the other
classes. |
