If you know anything about the programming we offer to our middle school students here, you know that each program tackles some pretty cool stuff. If you’ve ever thought “Hey, I’d like to know how to do that,” finally, here is your chance!

For three hours every Saturday in February, join Jill in Style Shop & learn the basics of sewing, just like our students do! You do not need to have any previous experience- all equipment, tools, instruction, & some fabric is supplied.

For the low cost of $80, you can reserve your spot in this limited-availability class. Learn to use a sewing machine, read a pattern, & much more. Over the course of four weeks, sew your own pillowcase, reversible tote bag, & stylish tunic!

Reserve your spot by contacting us with your deposit (contact@workshophouston.org or 713.807.7911), & come prepared to sew!

Style Shop Goes to the Quilt Festival!

workshop — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 20:51:08 +0000

Thursday, November 3rd, Style Shop headed downtown to look at some amazing work at the International Quilt Festival. While the students of Style Shop may be tackling some ambitious sewing projects during their time at Workshop Houston, nothing quite prepared us for the intricate designs and impressive sewing that was on display here.

Students especially enjoyed the Wearable Art section of the show, which displayed quilted clothing. Another big hit was the quilts which were created with sparkling thread.

Making a quilt is a huge undertaking, and the students were impressed by the amount of work that goes into something so lasting and beautiful. When asked to pick just one as their favorite, students said they absolutely couldn’t choose one quilt over another. We are already looking forward to going back next year!
