Upcoming Events.
[CANCELLED] Family Summer Camps with Hannah!
CANCELLED DUE TO LACK OF INTEREST
You've asked and we're here to make it happen! For several years, folks have asked to have "Family Camps" for those with littles who are too young for our general summer camps, who need to have the extra support of a parent or guardian, or who just love to spend time together!
Ages: For families with littles from 1 year old-5 years old or for older campers who want/need to attend with a parent/guardian
Times: 9AM-12PM
Sewing Basics
No skills are needed and everyone is welcome - Kyrie will walk you through everything you need to know! We will cover basic stitches, different seam styles, using the basic feet of a sewing machine, as well as how to use a basic machine. Each class will be a different project and students are welcome to bring the fabric you'd like to use for the project.
Classes will cover a variety of projects including:
-Book sleeve and book cover
-Square bag
-Reusable roll up bags
-and more!
Slow stitching & mending
Join us for a night of slow stitching and mending practice. We will have mending kits on hand to try out! Bring a project to work on or pick up some supplies from ours. A $5 donation is suggested to help cover mending kits and other supplies used, but the event is free.
Why Slow Stitching? Why Mending? In today’s busy world, it can be tempting to “toss it” and replace it. More and more, folks are looking for ways to slow down, fix it rather than forget it, learn new skills and build a community with others who share these goals. Ditch the phone for a night (okay, let’s admit we’ll probably have to get on YouTube to check out some tutorials, but you know what we mean) and hang out with friends or find new friends at these slow stitching craft workshops.
No experience necessary, bring your own supplies or use ours. Thanks to the Los Alamos Teen Center for sponsoring this series and to the McCune Charitible Foundation for their support in bringing communities together to share art, skills, and build a more resilient Los Alamos!
