Afterschool Sewing Classes
Creative classes for kiddos
During the Pandemic I am teaching private afterschool classes to siblings. This is a unique opportunity to be able to work with siblings on different creative projects and they do not have to be all the same project! One can work on sewing, another on Jewelry, and a third on art. Please contact me at cheryl (at)paradisodesigns.com for more information and to see how I can cater to your families creative interests.
TBD
Summer Sew Camps 2021
In 2121 as we progress through the pandmic I hope to have summer sew camps or at the very least creative classes with siblings!
I will update this information in January 2021

Private Classes
Custom private lesson classes that are tailored to your needs and level. This can be a beginner who has always just wanted to sew or someone who never has time to finish that big project and just needs some encouragement. I can teach virtually anything related to sewing. Possible projects making pillow or cushions, clothing, handbags, curtains, and anything can be discussed. I also teach jewelry-making, painting and dyeing. Beginner to advanced!
Social Distancing and Masks are required!
AND.....We can also do virtual too!
