Moore Free Library: Sewing Classes for Kids

The Moore Free Library in Newfane will be offering free Saturday sewing classes for children aged five and up starting in February. The first session on Saturday, February 1 from 1:00 – 2:00 PM, will be an introduction to sewing where children will learn some basic needle skills and practice sewing on felt. No pre-registration is required for the first session. After that, teacher Cheryl Liston will offer a four-part class the first Saturday of the month, March 7, April 4, May 2, June 6, from 1:00 – 2:00 PM. The class will cover hand sewing and an introduction to using a sewing machine and children will have materials for practice to take home each week. Children who complete all four classes will get a sewing kit to keep. Due to the use of scissors and needles, this class is appropriate for children aged 5 and up. Registration for the four-part series is required and limited to the first five kids who sign up. Call or email the library to join the class or come on Saturday, February 1 to the introductory session. Like all programs at the library, this is offered for free and is open to the public.
