Space Still Available

There is still plenty of space available at all of our locations. Students work at their own pace and on their own projects, so students can register anytime. No one is ever 'behind' other students, as 2 year veteran sewers can sew right next to brand new students.

For more information on class availability please contact Emily @ 801-360-4450 or sewkidsutah@yahoo.com.

New Projects!!

We have added these fun, simple patterns to our project catalog.  All patterns are designed by Karen Krug of LittleStitchers. The patterns are specifically designed for the child sewer and we love how easy and user friendly they are. We can't wait to see our students' personalities come out in each project as they are sewn together. Bring on the leopard print and polka dot combinations!
