Style Shop Tackles Pattern Sewing

Wednesday, October 19th, 2011

Sewing is something that many people know how to do, at least a little bit. Sewing clothing from a pattern, though, is a whole different story.

Style Shop is so proud to showcase some of our really talented sewing superstars. These girls have worked through Workshop Houston’s sewing curriculum, learning the basics, and are now at the level of sewing from a pattern. Some of their works can be seen here!

For more clothing sewed (and designed!) by some of our middle school participants, be sure to join us on Sunday, October 30th, at Premium Goods clothing store in the Rice Village between 2 & 5pm. We’ll be strutting our stuff in a fashion show that afternoon!


Friday trip to the Zoo!

Monday, October 17th, 2011

“The zoo was awesome. I got to see my favorite animal which is a lion, but he was asleep. Lions are my favorite because they are fierce and friendly at the same time. I also learned that there is an animal that is part zebra and part horse. It has legs that are striped like a zebra and the brownish body of a horse. I can’t name one favorite part of our trip to the zoo because it was all exciting.”

Jasmin, 12, on Workshop Houston’s trip to the zoo this Friday, as told to Katy.

Thanks, Sarah Atwood for helping us all go on a great trip!
