Camp Fun!

We always have such a great time in camp!!!

We make sure that each student learns the skills they need to create and finish the projects they dream. Some students made hats with the circle loom.

Other students sewed and made pin cushions and pillows. Students can choose to move across different disciplines as the mood strikes them.

Students wove on rigid heddle looms and frame looms. They made bags with zippers and straps in all shapes and sizes.

Just look at all those fun “pets”!! Notice the added zippers and keychain rings! Those additions are completely new ideas from the students for their pets.

As you can probably tell, our students are simply amazing using their new skills and I can only imagine how far they will take their projects.

Sewing Camp This Week

We are off to an amazing start to camp this week!!  Saying that we are a sewing camp is a little misleading as we have a few weavers and some jewelry makers thrown into the mix.  Everyone is having a great time as they get to choose exactly what the wish to make and what media they wish to use!!

We have stuffed toys…

We have jewelry making…

We have weaving…

We have pouches of all kinds.  Some with zippers (more than one!) and some with velcro…

We have headbands, scrunchies and bracelets…  AND  So much more!!

Our workspace is full of fun, collaboration and inspiration!!  Join us for a week of camp!

Our week in review

This week has been great!  We worked on so many different projects and had so much fun!

We had lots of finishes!  Bean bags, pin cushions and a zippered heart pouch which actually has a zipper on the back as well!  Very creative!

There was knitting, weaving, cross stitch, sewing and crochet happening!  And…

something that really makes me happy.  These sewn projects were all made by one of my students all by herself at home!  How fantastic is that?!!
