Fibers and Fashion for Kids (Ages 9-11)

Bring your dream designs to life, just like real fashion designers do! In this workshop focused on children ages 9-11, students will learn some of the most basic building blocks of fashion design from Britex's own Professor Lizzie.

During this two-hour workshop, students will:

• Be guided through a hands-on survey of fibers and fabrics, including fine and couture materials from Britex Fabrics' most special selections
• Learn how to pick and choose the right materials for their project
• Create a swatch board for their own fabulous fashion design
• Design and make their own no-sew poncho to wear home
• Show off their new creation with a fashion show
