Looking for something fun to do over winter break? Join our Winter Break Sewing Workshop with Ciao Bella – a two-day creative adventure for kids ages 8 to 15!

First, you’ll dive into the basics of sewing. You’ll learn how to pin, cut, and stitch fabric using real sewing machines. Then, with guidance and step-by-step support, you’ll create two different projects – one each day. From the first stitch to the final touch, you’ll build real skills and boost your confidence.

Next, you’ll bring your projects to life! Each one is designed to be fun, useful, and totally handmade by you. Even if you’ve joined us before, there’s always something new to make.

Best of all, everything is provided. That includes fabric, thread, needles, pins, scissors, and sewing machines. You don’t need to bring anything – just your creativity, energy, and excitement.

Along the way, you’ll also meet new friends, share ideas, and help each other out. As a result, you’ll learn more than just sewing – you’ll also build teamwork and confidence in a fun, supportive space.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll head home with two awesome projects, new skills, and a big sense of accomplishment.

So, if you’re ready to sew, create, and have a blast, don’t wait – sign up today!
