Beginner's Workshops - Kids Start Here!

All students who are new to our program start with a Beginner's Workshop. This stand alone 2 hour class teaches the basics of a sewing machine and students complete a small project to take home. All materials are provided!

Kids Sewing School Classes

Once students complete a Beginner’s Workshop, they’re ready to join a Sewing School Session. Each session runs for six weeks, and we offer six sessions throughout the school year. Classes are 75 minutes long.

Our curriculum is divided into four levels, with six units in each level. No matter what time of the year they start, students begin at Level 1, Unit 1, and work their way forward as they attend sessions. Because the program is self-paced, students can take breaks when needed—for example, if they skip a session to accommodate another activity, they simply pick up right where they left off at their next session. Each Level takes a year to complete. 

At Jessica’s Sewing School, we know many adults never had the chance to learn to sew—or feel unsure about even the basics of using a machine or reading a pattern. Our Adult Beginner Workshops are designed to bridge that gap! You’ll build a strong foundation as you learn to thread, operate, and troubleshoot a sewing machine—and leave with a fun, finished project to show off your new skills.

More one-session, project-based classes for beginners and novice sewists are coming soon, so be sure to check back often for new offerings!

Jessica's Sewing School offers limited private events. If you are interested in coordinating a class for friends, hosting a birthday party experience or booking a team building activity, please drop us a note to check on availability and pricing.
