WOW! That's all I can say about today! Everyone worked really hard and had lots of fun. They completed projects, started projects, mastered skills and much more.
Our first day of knitting and crochet camp was fabulous!
Today was our last day of camp for the week. Everyone was laughing and talking and working on their projects.
I simply cannot believe how quickly all these students have learned to sew! They are amazing and focused and extremely creative!
Incredibly, we seemed to have had even MORE fun today in camp!
Our second day of camp was today and it was as good if not better than the first! All the students came in so excited to work on their projects.
We had our first day of sewing camp today and what a blast it was!!
We sure are getting a lot done in class these past couple of weeks!
So many fun things being created in class!
We had a great time and worked on so many fun things!
Oh. My. Goodness!! We had such a great time in knitting!!
This is the start of a sweater being knit by a 3rd grader. She is almost 50% done with the front!
They all sit around working on their projects, talking and laughing. Such a great way to learn to relax and have fun.
After all the yarn had been dyed and washed, the student wound it into balls.
She decided that she didn't want to add ears and liked her creation as is.
We are now hosting mother/child workshops at Let's Go Crafting's studio. The most recent one was so much fun! They chose the Lined Book Bag for their project.
All fabrics cut and placed on our worktable.
Purring the bags together.
We always prepare carefully for our workshops. All tools and necessary items are placed within easy reach on our work table.
The students first pick their fabrics and then we get right down to pinning and sewing. "Tux the distractor" usually gets into the mix asking for attention.
Sewing, sewing, sewing.
There are more than enough sewing machines for everyone to work at the same time.
WOW!
Check out these bags! I had some very fun designer fabrics on hand and decided to offer these for this project. Don't they look fabulous?!
They all turned out great!
Happy kids.
The mommies stayed in the back ground and let the kids take center stage for this photo.
Designer fabrics.
I really loved this fabric and was happy it was used for such a nice bag. Contact us to schedule your mother/child workshop.
We had a great time in knitting class!
Just wait until you see how it all turned out!
Our sewing class has been hard at work finishing up some of their projects.
Wow!! It is becoming so hard to keep up with these students! They are working and having so much fun!
It is amazing that a 3rd grader has the patience to knit a sweater!! She even did her swatch to make sure it comes out the right size.
Note the kitty keeping her company!
We organized another fun-filled birthday party this past weekend!
Before any party, we make sure all the pieces necessary for the project and the tools needed are all set up and ready to go.
Once the guests arrive, they pick their fabrics and get started right away. Here they are cutting out and attaching the eyes.
I don't know how they do it, but each student manages to pick the perfect eyes to go with their owl.
Each owl turns out different and totally cute. Some of the party goers decided to add embellishments to their owls. I really love when this happens!
Such cute tail feathers!
Once again things went well!
I can't wait for our next class to see what they come up with!
