Kids build strong foundations through guided practice and fun, wearable results.

• Machine sewing basics + safe studio habits

• Cutting, pinning, pressing, and seam allowance accuracy

• Reading simple patterns and following construction steps

• Hand sewing basics

• Design thinking in kid-friendly form: planning, choosing materials, and making thoughtful decisions

Projects are matched to experience level so kids feel successful and challenged in the right ways.

Beginners start with foundational projects that build control and confidence. As skills develop, students move into more detailed projects and learn stronger finishing techniques.

(Projects vary by session and student level.)

Each class follows a calm, consistent rhythm:

• A short demonstration of the steps for the days project.

• Guided work time with coaching and check-ins

• A quick wrap-up: what we practiced + what’s next

Consistency matters as skills build best with regular attendance and steady practice.

Students work on bernette b38 sewing machines, which are beginner-friendly and include safety features such as finger guards and speed control.

Machine and tool safety practices are built into every class. We teach careful habits from day one; hand placement, speed control, focus, and safe tool use, so confidence and know-how grows alongside skill.

Registration + Enrollment

Little Stitch Studio classes are designed as an ongoing school-year program running from September through May. Enrollment reserves your student's place in their weekly class for the school year and continues automatically through May unless withdrawn according to the policy below.

Class sizes are intentionally limited to six students. Returning students receive priority enrollment, and new students are accepted as space becomes available.

An annual $75 registration and materials fee is due at enrollment and reserves your student's place for the school year. Monthly tuition is billed automatically from September through May at a fixed monthly rate. Tuition is based on the full school-year program rather than the number of individual class meetings in a particular month.

Withdrawal

We understand that schedules and circumstances can change during the school year. If your student needs to withdraw, please provide 30 days' written notice. Tuition payments scheduled within the 30-day notice period remain due. After the notice period, future recurring payments will be canceled.

If a class is full, email us to join the waitlist.

Missed Classes + Make-Ups

Because classes are small and enrollment is limited, we cannot guarantee a make-up for every student absence. When space is available, students may be offered an appropriate make-up class during the school year.

Classes canceled by Little Stitch Studio due to weather, instructor illness, or other unforeseen circumstances will be rescheduled whenever reasonably possible. School-year tuition is calculated for the overall program and is not adjusted based on the number of class meetings in an individual month.
