Event description

Open up a whole new world of creativity for young and old by learning sewing. This course is the 8th of a 10 week series filled with fun projects and helpful basic sewing knowledge.


This class is all about buttonholes and buttons. We discover how to create buttonholes with our machine and how to sew on a button. You can get different types of buttons and we will have a look at some of them and how to sew them on. Our finished project is a key ring that features the new learned skilled beautifully. :)

Within this class I encourage you to play around with all the features your machine offers when it comes to buttons. Do you have an automatic 1 step buttonhole feature, do you have to do it manually via a few steps, can your machine sew on buttons? I encourage you to check your manual and test it! :)

These classes are designed with children in mind and to teach them slowly and step by step some common basic sewing knowledge that you can find in all 3 sewing segments. Some women asked if they could join as well as they feel the bite size knowledge makes them feel more comfortable. So if that's you please feel free to join our small group of beginner sewing enthusiasts and grow your skill with like minded people in an relaxed atmosphere.

I will guide you or your child through a wonderful adventure to tap into your or their creativity and help them to not just learn sewing but also belief in your own or their own ideas and celebrate each creation and success no matter how small.

The classes are designed to teach some sewing basics over a 10 week period. Every project and every class covers a different topic from hand sewing basics over machine sewing basics. If you already feel confident in a certain area but need some more help in another. Just sign up for the specific class to learn more about that topic or book in for all 10 classes if you absolutely new to sewing. Either way you will always learn something and have fun sewing your own little creations. :)

Sewing is a huge and wide field that is packed with lots of different knowledge depending on specific techniques and knowledge needed within each sewing segment. My approach is to introduce bite size pieces of this wide field through small and fun projects and a calm and relaxed environment where everyone can tap into their creativity and Be Amazed about their own results in the end and what they are capable of.
