Child-size Hoodie Sewing Workshop

Join us for a fun, two-part sewing workshop where you'll learn to make super cute children's hoodies. We'll guide you through the whole process; from choosing the perfect, snuggly fabric to a completed hoodie your favorite little human will never want to take off!

Supply List:

Fabric

• Main Fabric: 1 to 1.5 yards (depending on child's size).
• From least to most challenging: cotton lycra, French terry, or fleece. Look for at least 20% stretch.
• Think a heavyweight t-shirt in terms of weight and stretch
• Accent Fabric: 1/4 yard of coordinating fabric for cuffs, waistband, and hood binding.
• Second Accent Fabric (for advanced beginners): If you are confident on your sewing machine, you may have time to add pink centers to your ears or a flat tail applique on the back of your hoodie. You’ll need coordinating fabric in the appropriate colors! Smaller pieces like pink centers can be made with craft felt.

Notions

• Needles: One pack of ballpoint or stretch needles (Size 80/12 or 90/14). Crucial to prevent skipped stitches!
• Thread: 1 spool of all-purpose polyester thread in a matching color.
• Marking Tool: Tailor’s chalk, a water-soluble fabric pen or pencil. I like Pilot Frixion markers for cotton and French terry, and tailor’s chalk for fleece.

Tools

• Your Sewing Machine
• Cutting: Fabric scissors - must be used only for fabric as paper dulls blades and scissors used for paper will not cut fabric cleanly
• Pinning: Standard sewing pins or "Wonder Clips" I prefer clips, especially if your fabric is thick
• Measuring: A flexible tape measure or a clear sewing ruler.

Hoodie Pattern

Note on Pre-washing: Please wash and dry your fabric before class! Knit fabrics often shrink, and you want to ensure the hoodie fits perfectly after its first wash.

In this four-hour class, you will create a landscape quilt using a raw-edge fusible
applique. Learn to create scenic quilts featuring mountains, lakes, and rivers.

Supply List:

• Your sewing machine
• One fat quarter of blue batik fabric (for use as sky and lake)
• ½ yard of any fabric for baking/binding
• One 20”x22” piece of batting
• 10-12 assorted batik scraps (sizes at least 4” x 20”); recommended colors:
  greens, browns, tans, blues, purples
• 1 roll of Lite Steam-A-Seam 2 double-stick lite fusible web (12”x 3 yards)
• Applique pressing sheet
• 28 mm rotary cutter and cutting mat
• 24” long ruler to aid with cutting fabric
