Kids sewing – Hair scrunchies

Kids sewing – Hair scrunchies

This Kids’ sewing – hair scrunchies is an easy class for children after they’ve completed the introductory ‘learn to sew’ class.

Class Description

This sewing class for children will give them more useful practice. Making hair scrunchies is easy and lots of fun. These ones will also have an optional ‘bunny ear’ bow. It helps develop basic sewing techniques such as cutting fabric, making seams and using elastic. We’ll be using old clothing to teach valuable upcycling ‘make do and mend’ skills. Please supply an old blouse, shirt or T-shirt.  (Adult’s or child’s, but freshly-laundered).

Level: Some basic sewing machine experience is required so children must have previously completed my ‘Kids Learn to sew class’ before taking this class. Suitable for 8-15 year olds.

Sewing is an ideal activity for children. It stimulates their creativity while enabling mental and physical development.  Crafts such as sewing encouraging focus and concentration, whilst giving a sense of achievement and self-worth.
