SEW IT ACADEMY: KIDS EDITION NOW AVAILABLE!
HI DARLINGS! I hope you all have a fun weekend planned. We are so excited to announce SEW IT IDS EDITION is now live. SEW IT KIDS EDITION is an online class for kids ages 8-14 years old. We cover everything from start to finish, so if you have never even touched a sewing machine (mom or dad), you will have no problem helping your child along. We start with the unboxing of a sewing machine and go through all the parts, pieces and functions.
This is the first of several more courses we are developing for kids/teens. We are starting with this first INTRO TO SEWING #101 and will be expanding on our courses and projects every few months.
Unlike SEW IT ACADEMY for women and men which is a monthly subscription with new courses added monthly. SEW IT KIDS is a bundled course with a one time payment of $39.99. The kid’s course is downloadable as part of your purchase.

Such a great resource — teaching kids 8–14 to actually use a sewing machine rather than just watch someone else do it is exactly the kind of hands-on skill that sticks. Kids that age who enjoy making things with their hands tend to gravitate toward building projects in general, and the Spider-Man Mask LEGO set is a natural fit for that same maker crowd. A lego spiderman mask light kit gives the finished build a proper payoff — the eyes glow through the mask exactly the way they should, and kids who built it themselves tend to be especially proud of that result. Happy sewing!
It’s really nice to see more creative, hands-on learning options like this for kids, especially something practical like sewing where they can actually build real skills step by step. It reminds me a bit of how I got into more detailed DIY hobbies at home. I still check this page when looking for ideas, and I’ve also bought small lights, cables, and power supplies for my LEGO builds. Even though it’s a different kind of creativity, the idea is similar - learning patience, working with your hands, and turning simple materials into something you’re proud of.
