At our Summer Camps, kids learn to sew from scratch, starting with how to thread up a sewing machine and getting used to the machine with practice pieces.
Then they get to use their new skills to make several projects throughout the week to take home!
Lots of fun, creativity, and hands-on activities guaranteed!

Some more incredible jackets from our costume classes this term that we just had to share!🤩
All of these projects have been made using donated materials and each student designed and created their jacket from scratch. They have all turned out to be so unique!

Here's some positivity for your Sunday🥰
When you shop at Stitch the Gap, whether that's buying something from our scrap store, coming along to a class, or getting your sewing machine serviced, you're doing more than just making a purchase.
Every penny you spend goes straight back into helping us keep our classes affordable and accessible, so more people can learn, create, and feel part of our wee community🩷
AND you’re also supporting a more sustainable way of working with textiles by reducing, reusing, and giving donated materials a second life!
Thank you! We're so glad you're part of it😊

How gorgeous is this jacket made by one of our students in our Wednesday night costume class😍 We've been blown away by the creativity and skill level this term!
All the kids started with the same jacket pattern, but each chose their own fabric, design, and embellishment, making every piece completely unique✨
