Quilting with MarKay A.

Kids love to learn to sew with Mrs. Appel, with fun, confidence-building projects! Sewing--its art and technology--thrill me! Let me help your child discover a love of hand- and machine-sewing! In the process, your child will: --learn a new skill --improve hand-eye coordination --exercise creative problem-solving --make design decisions --reinforce math skills --learn interesting facts about textile history, science and engineering Lessons are tailored for your child's skills and interests. We begin with hand-sewing, then progress to the sewing machine when your child is ready. I teach fun projects that are designed to keep your child's attention, and are usually completed during that session. You don't need to provide any materials, tools or equipment to begin, until your child is ready to tackle a larger project. About Mrs. Appel (yep, it's pronounced just like the fruit!): I've been teaching sewing to kids since 2011. I have also taught drawing, animation and science in elementary after-school programs and drawing/painting and maker skills at a hybrid middle-/high school. If something can be made, I can make it understandable and fun to learn!
