{7/13-17} Stitch Camp

Ages 9+ | July 13–17 | 9:00am–12:00pm
Taught by Jennifer Samuelson & Melissa Turley

Welcome to Stitch Camp, where hand stitching becomes an adventure. In this calm, creative summer camp, campers will explore a variety of hand-sewing techniques through engaging, hands-on projects that build skill, confidence, and focus.

Throughout the week, students will work with thread, fabric, and simple tools as they learn embroidery, cross stitch, appliqué, and decorative handwork. Projects are designed to be accessible for beginners while still offering depth and interest for students with prior stitching experience.

This camp emphasizes patience, creativity, and the joy of making something by hand at a thoughtful, unrushed pace.
