In this hands-on two-week intensive fashion design summer program, you will learn hand stitching as well as how to use a sewing machine so you construct your own designs. We will learn how to choose the fabrics that best suit your designs and cover sewing supplies, tools, and machines to use in your projects. The program culminates in a runway fashion show to display your innovative creations to family and friends!
All fabrics, trims, pattern paper, and other materials and tools are provided in the class. Students are encouraged to bring their own preferred tools/toolbox if they already own them.
The final culmination is Friday evening, with Saturday being a move-out day
Fashion design summer programs are open admission. Instructors will work with your child at their level. Your child will improve and learn new skills, whether they are a beginner or have been designing for years.
A toolbox should include: a decent pair of fabric scissors, a stitch/seam ripper, a thimble, a packet of sewing needles, straight pins, paper scissors, and a ruler – please have these in a container/box/basket of some kind that can be closed and protects you from the sharp-pointed objects. If you are able to provide this, please bring it with you. Tools are provided for you if you are not able to purchase your own.
Extra buttons, beads, lace scraps, extra fabric scraps you would like to use.
Your own hats, scarves, gloves, boots etc. can also be incorporated into your total look for the fashion show!
