SEW IT WITH WOOL: We have several weekly students who will be making practice outfits for the state fair and then compete for State wide recognition in November. The finalist will go to the Regional contest to win cash prizes.These students will buy their own wool, and accessories for the fashion show. *Create Your Own Joy will provide the machines, practice wool, patterns, embellishments, buttons, zippers and thread. This is an amazing opportunity for the students to get real life experience in the fashion industry and use skills on wool fabrics.

I offer a regular class schedule as well as a spring break, fall break, summer and school break class schedule. Students are welcome to sign up for as many classes as they like during the summer and school break schedules. This is a great time to try out a class or bring a friend. email CreateYourOwnJoy5@gmail.com to sign up. I try to keep my website updated as much as possible.
Regular class schedules are offered in 2 semesters, much like a school.

Special session classes (for example fall break/spring break will not be included in the cost of tuition.)
Students will not always finish projects during class times. Unfinished projects will be placed in clear Ziploc bags with the students name on it and placed in a basket for safe keeping until next time. Since fabric is provided, unfinished projects may not be taken home to be finished. Once a project is finished they may take it home.
Instructors: CYOJ sewing instructors have a lifetime of sewing experience who love to teach. We have sewn everything from basic alterations to wedding dresses and home decor. (Our classes are for learning, not sew for hire. ****No we do not sew for hire! )
Our mission: To foster a love for sewing and creating original works of art. We teach proper sewing terms, techniques and skills to the younger generation with the goal that they will be able to sew independently. We feel these skills will build confidence and self-esteem as well as serve as a creative outlet.
In these classes they will learn:
*Sewing machine basics: threading the machine, wind the bobbin etc…
*Proper ironing and fabric cutting techniques
*How to read a pattern (directions) and work with patterns.
*Advanced students will learn how to properly use an overlock serger. They will work with specialty fabrics and learn decorative stitching on the machines.
Students have made a variety of sewing projects. For example: pillow cases, apron, reversible tote bags, pj pants, rag quilts, stuffed animals, lunch bags, skirts, dresses, headbands and Halloween costumes to name a few!
Supplies: All supplies are provided for each student including the sewing machines. There is a wide variety of fabrics to choose from. Your child will be working with Viking machines. Each machine is receives regular service to keep it in good working order.
