This class is a playful introduction to the world of fashion design for children. We will explore the creative side of design through simple fashion sketching and drawing, where kids can bring their clothing ideas to life on paper.

Students will also learn basic sewing techniques, both by hand and with a sewing machine, while creating fun and practical beginner-friendly projects. The lessons are designed to build confidence step by step, balancing creativity with useful technical skills.

The class is perfect for children who love costumes, clothing, and crafts, as well as for aspiring young fashion designers who want to start turning their ideas into real garments.
