Does your child have an interest in sewing? If "sew", we have the perfect summer workshop for you! Our Youth Apparel Workshop with Sam is a great opportunity for your child 10-18 to sew jogger pants and a sweatshirt of their very own, just in time for back to school. Sam Donovan will be on hand to provide expert instruction. He will help them select fabric and show them how to cut their pattern and fabric, and how to sew their garment. Lunch and snacks are provided. Pattern and fabric not included.

Signing up for this class represents your agreement with our Class and Events Policies at Cotton Candy Fabrics. Our Class and Events Policy is available on our website under the Classes tab.

Instructor: Samuel Joseph Donovan
Instructor Bio: Sam Donovan is the Director of Apparel Sewing here at Cotton Candy fabrics. A graduate of Parsons, Sam also appeared on Project Runway twice, where he was a runner-up and an All-Star. His passion for helping people learn how to sew is inherited from his grandmothers, all of whom had a role in his fashion and sewing beginnings. Nowadays, Sam can be found bouncing around the Cotton Candy Sewing Room, soy latte in hand, pins stuck in his shirt pocket, helping people learn the newest apparel pattern Cotton Candy is offering. He hopes to see you in a sewing class soon, but beware: he?ll probably try to get you to try pattern mixing. Watch our calendar for Sam?s apparel classes.
