About this Event

STITCH & STYLE Beginner Sewing + Creative Craft Workshop


Ready to try sewing without committing to a complicated class? Join our STITCH & STYLE Beginner Sewing workshop where you'll learn the basics in a fun, laid-back setting. This in-person event is perfect for anyone wanting to get hands-on with fabrics and crafts. Whether you’re a total newbie or just looking to refresh your skills, come stitch, create, and style with us!


Stitch & Style is a relaxed, beginner-friendly creative workshop where you'll complete two fun projects in one session.

You'll start by learning essential sewing-machine basics before creating your own fabric scrunchie. To make the sewing portion comfortable and manageable for first-time participants, the fabric will be pre-cut to standard dimensions, and the sewing machines will be threaded and prepared in advance. You'll focus on learning basic machine operation, controlling the foot pedal, and practicing straight stitching.

Then, you'll switch gears for a second hands-on craft project: a coastal-inspired decorative hair accessory.

No sewing experience? No problem.

This workshop is specifically designed for beginners, and guided instruction will be provided throughout the session to help participants understand each step and comfortably complete their projects.

All essential materials and workshop sewing machines will be available during the event.

Simply show up, choose your materials, and start creating.


What You'll Make

🧵 Project 1 — Your Own Fabric Scrunchie

Learn the foundations of beginner machine sewing while creating a wearable accessory you can take home.

To help beginners make steady progress within the workshop timeframe, fabric pieces will be pre-cut and the sewing machines will be threaded and ready to use.

You'll explore:

  • Basic sewing-machine operation
  • Simple machine safety
  • How to control the foot pedal
  • Straight stitching
  • Basic scrunchie construction
  • Finishing your scrunchie

Choose from available fabrics to give your project your own style.


Project 2 — Coastal-Inspired Hair Accessory

After finishing your sewing project, move into a relaxed craft session and create your own starfish-inspired decorative hair clip.

Choose your details, assemble the design, and personalize your finished piece.

No special crafting experience is required.


Bonus Customization

If time allows, personalize your scrunchie with available decorative embellishments and finishing details.

Make it colorful, minimal, playful, or completely your own.
