Workshop Description:
Discover the simple joy of creating something beautiful with your own hands while learning one of the most fundamental and timeless skills: hand sewing.
In this beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop, you will create up to two floral bag charms which can also be used as keychains, zipper pulls, or small decorative gifts. This class is designed to be approachable for complete beginners, while still being fun and satisfying for anyone who enjoys crafting.
You will be guided step-by-step through the process of folding fabric into layered flower shapes, securing each piece with basic hand-stitching techniques, and assembling your finished flowers onto swivel hook keychains. By the end of class, you will leave with finished pieces you can use right away, along with the confidence to recreate the project at home.
This workshop is perfect for adults, teens, and anyone looking to learn a practical skill in a relaxed, creative environment.
