Creative freedom and focussing on enjoying the moment, never mind the tangles and wonky stitches is so important for creating a wonderful foundation for a lifetime of sewing joy. Sashiko is a great stitch to get your kids sewing without any pressure. Small hand sewing projects are perfect.

KIDS LEARN TO LOVE SEWING
This little heart was stitched by Eloise, age 6, all by herself. There is a big blobby tangle on the back but it doesn’t matter. She loved sewing it and wears her creation with pride and a big smile.
We used a stick and stitch sashiko heart – this is a great idea for a first project – a simple shape on an old T-shirt.
Eloise wore some 1970’s dress up spectacles to protect her eyes as she was not used to using a sharp needle.
eloise’s next project
Eloise made this kit, drawing and cutting out the letters of the word she wanted to add to her T-shirt. She only managed to stitch a couple of letters, it doesn’t matter. She loved the moment, and was so proud to put her T-shirt on after creating and making it herself.
She did a wonderful job!
Adding words, names and dates to projects will be included on the membership site.
