Hello Friends! It’s been a busy month for me with getting ready for not only weekly classes but also putting final touches on my summer camps!  Tower Hill Camp Fair is next week but I have my camps up right now on my website and the good news is that you can also register for camps at Tower Hill before anyone else sees them at the Camp Fair!  “Sew” exciting!  Please email me at bobbi@fascinationinfabrics.com or call me at 1-610-494-7742.  And please share this blog!  Thanks in advance! My camps for the summer are full of fun projects to test your child’s creativity and build both hand and sewing machine skills.  They also foster a love of sewing and the needle arts!

Camps at Tower Hill

The following camps can be found in my brochure on my website or in Tower Hills brochure.  I take care of the registration, so you may register for these camps on my site or by mail.

Sewing on the Go Camp

I have 2 general “Sewing on the Go” camp and each week has different projects geared to the interests and skills of the campers in the class.

American Girl Sewing

Back by popular demand, I’ve scheduled 2 “American Girl Sewing” Camps.  Beginners will make a simple wardrobe for their dolls while learning to sew by hand and by machine.  Advanced campers will love choosing several patterns to make clothes and accessories for their dolls while learning to navigate a pattern.  Again, both weeks will focus on different projects depending on the skill levels of my campers.

Creature Camp 2

Always a favorite and full of fun creating monsters and creatures out of a variety of materials.

Junior Sewing on the Go ***New this Year***

I’ve had such wonderful classes with my young friends during the year, I decided to try a Junior Camp for kids 4-6-years old.  This camp will be a morning only camp and will be mostly a hand sewing camp with stories and sewing crafts rounding out the morning.

Activity Week at Tower Hill Day Camp

July 23 – July 27 During this week, I will be the guest teacher at the day camp.  I’ll be doing beginning projects with both the Tower Tots (Minis) and the older kids.  This is a great way to see if your kids would enjoy the wonderful world of sewing!  Contact Ms. Cindy Sardo at csardo@towerhill.org with any questions.

Camps at The Tatnall School

If you are going to Tatnall or are looking for other weeks for camp, I have 2 summer camps at Tatnall.  The school takes care of their registrations so please contact Andrea Morrison andreamorrison@tatnall.org.

Sewing on the Go Camp

June 18 – June 22 August 6 – August 10 Learn basic hand and machine sewing skills while stitching lots of fun projects.  Each week has a different set of projects to sew and projects are geared to the interests and skills of the campers in the class.

Activities at Ursuline Academy

I am pleased to be back at Ursuline Academy for Winter/Spring classes.  And, the week of August 13 – August 17 I will be spending a few days teaching their very young campers to sew.  Any questions on the programs at Ursuline please call Mr James Greatorex at 1-302-658-7158 ext 251 or email jgreatorex@ursuline.org. Until next time, Ms. Bobbi

I am getting so excited to start the Winter/Spring sessions with all of you! A welcome back to all my returning students and a welcome to all my new students at Tower Hill, Tatnall, and Ursuline Academy!

Usually, I try to write a newsletter each week to let parents know what we are doing in class and any remind them of any important dates like our parties we all love. This term I’m going to ask parents and kids to visit my blog each week on my website. All the blogs will be up on the site and you will never miss a weekly update.

I’ll continue to post all the dates of the classes, keep you informed of any changes, and post pictures of our creations!  And, if your kids enjoy the kits they can purchase additional kits on the website or through me at school.

I’ll also be posting the blogs on my Facebook Page (Fascination in Fabrics).  Please visit my page and “like” my page.  Read some of the articles that I have posted or share your own article on sewing to my page.  Anything sewing related would be fantastic and probably enjoyed by all.

I’m “Sew” excited about my Website, Blog and Facebook Page!  Come visit me soon and I’ll see you next week! And please share with anyone that might be interested in the joys of sewing!

Ms. Bobbi
