A Creative Sanctuary in Altadena hosting unique sewing classes tailored just for children.

Confidence & Creativity
Children learn patience as they bring ideas to life with their own hands. The creative process builds independence, boosts confidence, and helps them feel proud of what they create.
-
Life Skill
Sewing equips children with a lifelong ability to mend, alter and create, reducing waste and foster self-sufficiency. It helps them understand that items can be fixed, not just replaced.
