CURRENT GROUPS and COURSES AT SPENNYMOOR

Sewing Squad – a sewing group for 8-12 year olds

Do you know a child who would like to learn to sew?  Then our ‘Sewing Squad’ might just be the right club for them!

• Children will learn to use a sewing machine, as well as a wide range of other sewing skills and techniques.
• ‘Sewing Squad’ members will learn how to upcycle and recycle unwanted clothing and other textiles to make new and useful items –   this will be an important life skill for their future.
• Sessions and projects will be planned to reflect the age, interests, and ideas of ‘Sewing Squad’ members.

Karron is a qualified teacher and adapts sessions to suit the age and ability of individual children.  Children will learn how to use equipment safely as part of the session.  There is no pressure, and children will be given lots of support and encouragement to develop their confidence and skills.

All sessions take place on Tuesdays between 4pm – 5.30pm.  Places are limited and must be booked in advance – please contact us at hello@craftykitz.co.uk. for more information, and to find out if there are places available.  

NEW COURSES FOR 2025 COMING SOON!

All sessions take place at Spennymoor Youth and Community Centre on Tuesdays between 6pm – 8pm.  Courses must be booked in advance.

Karron will be available to support and guide all sewers at each of the weekly sessions, and you will learn at your own pace – no pressure at all!  As a qualified teacher, Karron understands that sewers will learn at different rates, and in different ways so she will adapt her teaching style to suit the needs of individuals.  We want you to enjoy your sewing experience and, although we aim to teach you specific skills during our courses, you are under no pressure to achieve a certain amount by the end of the 4 weeks.

If you cannot see a course to suit your needs, please contact us as we are open to suggestions for new courses.

We look forward to helping you on your sewing journey!
