Let's make Sneakers! Patti found a great sneaker kit and made several pairs and now she's excited to share this process with you. These sneakers - with a little prep - can easily be made in a day! The best part is you get to customize them to your likes and personality. Will you pick your favorite sports team? Designer Fabric? Favorite color? It's all up to you!

If you love precision and consistency in your quilting rulers, you will love using design rulers and templates! These handy tools assist in placing designs accurately and stitching them out precisely. Learn to handle rulers and templates safely with the ruler base and Sure Foot, and how to achieve accuracy with the markings. The wide variety of Handiquilter rulers will inspire you to new design heights. This is a hands-on event taught by a national Handiquilter Educator. Each longarm will have a maximum of 2 people and each will have an opportunity to work on each project.

If you're passionate about creating bags, this is the perfect place for you! We'll meet once a month, where everyone will work on their own bag projects—whether you're just starting or working on something advanced. Our instructor, well-versed in bag making, will be there to guide you through any tricky steps and offer personalized assistance. Feel free to bring a snack, your sewing machine, and any bag projects you're currently working on. And don't forget to bring along any bags you've recently finished to share and inspire others! Join us for a fun, creative, and supportive time—whether you're a beginner or experienced, you'll have a great time making bags and learning new techniques!

KIDS’ CHOICE Summer Camps - every camp, all summer long! Our sewing camps are designed for kids ages 7 to 13 of any skill level. Unlike our After-School program, where kids follow a prescribed curriculum, our summer camps are based on KIDS’ CHOICE - meaning they get to pick the projects they want to make. With a large selection of projects to choose from, kids can come for multiple weeks without making the same project twice. Every camper’s skill level will be assessed based on the information you give us on the registration form and any history they may have in our educational program. Then, kids will choose from a selection of projects appropriate for their skill level. Every skill level has projects in these categories: quilting, bag making, pillows, stuffies, and applique, - so every kid can find projects that fit their personal taste. Note: If your child has no sewing experience, they must first complete our Beginner Workshop before coming to camp. This is a 2-hour class in which students learn the basics of the sewing machine. Register for a Beginner Workshop here: (ADD A LINK TO YOUR BEGINNER WORKSHOP) All project materials (fabric, thread, etc.) are included in the cost of camp. However, students must provide their own tools. Each day, please pack a light snack and a drink for your child, as we take a short break mid-camp, each day.
