Let’s learn to hand-sew! We provide all the fabrics, thread, needles and the instruction. Make a cute small shoulder bag, with a basic fabric strap, a pocket and a button closure. Kids under 12 must come with an adult. Our instructor has been teaching this bag making class at SCEC summer camp for many years. Feel free to bring a dinner snack to this class.
