Summer Sewing Camps

2008

 

Once again, Claflin Academy is offering our popular Summer Sewing Camps

 

Classes are designed for ages 10 through 16.

 

For Children under 10, contact us at 282-9618 or via the web at mary@Claflinacademy.com

 

 

Campers will learn how to use a sewing machine and sewing tools while exploring the world of basic garment construction. A variety of projects will be offered. Each sessions includes 15 hours of instruction.

 

Level 1: We will focus on learning to use a sewing machine. Students will learn the very basics of threading the machine, winding a bobbin, proper insertion of the bobbin and needle. How to set the length and width of a stitch, and how to determine if the tension is set properly. Projects will be small and may include a drawstring bag and tote. Completion of class will result in an operator's license. Most materials will be provided except for sewing tools.

 

Level 2: We will work on 2 or 3 simple garments. Girls will make a denim skirt and top. Boys will make boxer shorts and shirt. Students will provide fabric, matching thread and notions needed for projects.

 

Level 3: TBA

 

Classes are hands-on, project-oriented in a creative, laid back and supportive atmosphere where campers are strongly encouraged to work at their own pace.

 

Our class sizes are small so that each student receives plenty of personal attention. As a result, we have a limited number of spaces available, so reserve early!
