JUNIOR CLUB (years 3-6)

Some information about our JUNIOR sewing clubs

  • The clubs are open to children in Years 3-6

  • All the children use sewing machines from day one. We start with a simple project that is normally completed within the first lesson and move on to more complicated projects as the term progresses.

  • We normally complete 4-5 projects a term

  • We have a 4 year rotation of projects, meaning that a child could join in Year 3 and continue until they leave in Year 6 without ever repeating a project!

  • We can take a maximum of 8 children

  • The clubs are £15 per session and are paid as a full term

September-December 2024 Projects

  • Notebook pencil holder

  • Winter hat and snood

  • Geometric quilt

  • Christmas cushion

Please note, some of these projects may need to be changed or removed due to term dates

Saturdays 10-11:30m

TEEN CLUB (year 7+)

Some information about our TEEN sewing clubs

  • During the first lesson, the students will be taught how to thread up and operate our sewing machines before moving onto a project that everyone will complete. After that, they will be given a choice of 5 projects to work on at their own pace throughout the term. This will give the students experience in cutting out pattern pieces and following a simple pattern.

  • They can continue in the club for as long as they wish - returners will continue with a project they have not yet completed.

  • The projects are: pyjama bottoms or summery trousers, pinafore dress, hoody, duffle bag and a boxy top or dress. The students may choose from the fabrics available, or can purchase them elsewhere to use in class.
