In alignment with item #5 on "The List: 101 Skills Girls Should Master Before Entering the 9th Grade" by Girls Rule!, the SewnPerfect Workshop Series will provide blossoming fashionistas with a fun, engaging and unique opportunity to enhance their mathematic, reading comprehension, organizational and planning skills as they learn to design and construct their own one-of-a-kind garments, accessories and other creative fashion projects.
Added Benefits: SewnPerfect fashion design and sewing classes teaches girls to make quality fashions and life decisions. The series was designed to help girls to expand their creativity while exploring potential career pathways and teaching valuable life skills.
Classes will be conducted at the sites listed beneath each module (below), and may also be delivered in schools, churches, community organizations or as an in-home SewnPerfect Party.
