Youth Pursuits: Intermediate Sewing Camp
August 10–12 (Mon–Wed)
9:00–11:45 am
Ages 9–17
Cost: $50
This intermediate sewing camp is designed for youth who already have some sewing machine experience. Campers should be able to use a sewing machine, thread it, and have already made basic projects before camp. We will build on those skills to sew elastic waist "Pajama pants". Campers will learn how to use a sewing pattern from start to finish while creating elastic-waist pants.
Students will be introduced to digital patterns and guided through the full process. Each day includes hands-on instruction, skill-building, and time to grow confidence and creativity at the machine.
Fabric and thread are not included.
Families will receive an email prior to camp with details on:
- How much fabric to purchase
- Recommended fabric types
- Where to buy materials
Elastic and additional project materials will be provided.
If possible, please bring a sewing machine. This helps ensure we have enough machines for all campers and allows students to work consistently on one machine. A limited number of machines will be available.
A welcome email with final camp instructions will be sent the week prior to camp.
**Registration closes August 3. If seeking to register after this date - or - camp capacity (14 students) has been reached and you wish to be placed on a waiting list, please contact Lynn McDonald at lmcdonald@salem-covenant.church **
