The Sewist Mastering the Art of Fabric
Mastering the art of fabric since 2012, we are a sewing studio and fabric store dedicated to providing a creative space for our thriving sewing community!
I am a self taught seamstress who learned the love of sewing from my mom and grandmother. I love to create for my two children, and I love the fulfillment that I get when I see how much they enjoy what I make, and receive compliments from friends and strangers. I want to share that sense of accomplishment and pride with my students. The options for sewing instruction these days are limited, but t

And that's a wrap on Market Camp! 🛍️
Our second Sidewalk Sale was another huge success! We sold out of EVERYTHING once again, and the campers got their well-earned treat to celebrate. 🥳
This week's campers chose to donate their remaining profit to Red Head Strays of Saint John NB! We love that they chose to support an amazing organization doing such great work for animals in need in our community.
What a way to finish off our final camp of the summer! We've had such a fun season filled with creativity, big ideas, and plenty of making, and we can't wait to share a big recap of everything our campers have accomplished!
Last camp, last day, and one very successful summer in the books. 💛
One last day of production!
The Market Camp crew is wrapping up their final projects today, and we've got a very exciting batch of things ready for tomorrow's sale. They've been putting their own spin on everything and there are some seriously fun things coming your way.
The Sidewalk Sale is tomorrow! Come see what they've been working on and check out the full lineup in person. 🐟 🥔
This Market Camp crew has been LOCKED IN.
They've been working together to get their inventory ready, making sure everything is up to their standards and adding their own spin to products along the way!
We're getting very close to market day, and if last week's sale was anything to go by, you won't want to wait too long to come by. Get to the Sidewalk Sale this Friday within 11 AM and 2 PM!

Round two of Market Camp is here!
A new group of campers means a whole new batch of products, brands, and ideas, and they've been busy getting everything ready for their sale.
We're keeping the same theme from last week's market, but with a new little twist 👀

One of the things we love most about what we do is giving kids and sewists of all ages a place to learn how to sew, try new things, and make something that’s truly their own.
So when our Market Camp campers chose to put their earnings from this past Friday’s sale toward helping The Sewist replace worn-out tools and maintain our machines, it really hit home. They wanted to help make sure other kids could have the same opportunity they’ve had.
That got us thinking about how we can continue investing in the studio and keeping our programs running for the kids and teens who come through our doors.
So we’re starting Stock the Studio: an opportunity for our community to help keep the studio equipped, functional, and ready for the next generation of young sewists.
Every contribution helps us keep the machines running, replace the tools that see daily use, and maintain a space where kids can learn, create, and sew.
We’re so grateful to our Market Camp campers for inspiring this initiative, and to everyone who helps keep sewing accessible for the next generation.

Spud fever has officially spread to the staff.
Our mystery potato bag charms sold out at the Market Camp Sidewalk Sale, so we asked Mei to share her mystery spud unboxing with us to find out which potato she's been blessed with!
A little extra Market Camp content for everyone who missed out on getting their own spud. But don’t worry, we’ve got one more Market Camp next week, so who knows what will be for sale!
Market Camp had a CRAZY day! 🛍️
We completely sold out, and our campers got to see their hard work pay off with lots of happy customers heading home with mystery spuds, bag charms, and some seriously adorable spa gear!
And after a very busy day of running their businesses, the campers got their own little treat to celebrate. They earned it!
We've got lots more to share about this week's Market Camp adventure, so stay tuned for more from these very busy young entrepreneurs.
Which potato speaks to you?
There are no wrong answers. There are only potatoes.
Our Market Camp crew made every single one of these mystery potato bag charms completely unique, so grab a blind bag and see who you end up with tomorrow at the Sidewalk Sale, August 14! 🥔
