Princeton Art Studios

Three-Day Beginner Sewing Workshop

September 12-14

1:30pm-3:30pm

In this hands-on class, students will learn the fundamentals of hand sewing while creating a soft, playful character from wool and fabric. Using a large pom-pom as the body, students will build their own custom toy—adding stitched-on arms and legs, a simple handmade outfit, and embroidered facial features. A fun crown or hat adds the final creative touch!

This project is perfect for beginners and young makers looking to learn basic stitching, assembling, and decorating techniques in a relaxed and creative environment.

Skills You’ll Learn:

• Basic hand-sewing stitches
• Simple embroidery for eyes and expressions
• Pom-pom making using art wool
• Assembling and attaching fabric limbs
• Designing and sewing simple clothing and accessories

Each student will leave with a charming, fully finished character and the confidence to continue sewing on their own. No experience necessary—just bring your imagination!
