Yesterday I finished my 1st session of the Kids Sewing Club and I couldn’t be happier!

And as I was scrolling on this platform today, this caught my attention ⬆️

If there’s one thing I want all my students, big and small, to know is that they are supported and encouraged to start again as many times as they need!

🩵 That’s my way to show them they truly do belong 🩵

On Friday, November 6th, join us at The Grove in Stratford for a full day of cozy holiday sewing.

Little hands will stitch their very own Christmas ornaments, and every one goes home with them, ready for the tree.

The kind of keepsake you’ll pull out year after year and remember who made it. 🧸⭐

🕙 10am to 3pm
📍 The Grove, Stratford
🍕 Pizza + Snacks Combo available too!

As I was sitting in the kitchen this morning, I thought about this saying… ⬆️

I was having breakfast on our messy counter when I saw the reflection of our window on the refrigerator door.

It struck me as a beautiful reminder we can choose what we see (never disregarding the acknowledgement of the privileges we carry though).

And I wanted to share that with you as a gentle nudge to practice that on your daily lives as well.

Let me know what beautiful things you found out there today!

With love,
Ana 💕

Hey there, let me share something:

I learned to sew when I was 11 years old, at school. It started as a class and turned into a lifelong love, hobby and, eventually, my job!

But I do remember how intimidating starting something new can be as an adult... And that's why I launched this program!

Sew, Let's Lunch! is a 6-week sewing club for adults who want to learn a real skill, meet lovely people, and carve out one hour or two a week that is just for them.

Come as you are and we will meet you there!

Swipe to see what we'll be making together, starting September 17th at The Grove.

Spots are limited — link in bio to join us! 💕

Another Creative Sewing Workshop 🎉 but this time, we’re going bigger and bolder!

Have you ever watched a child slow down and truly focus?

✨ Hand sewing does that ✨

In a world full of screens and instant everything, giving kids a needle and thread is a quiet act of resistance. It teaches them that beautiful things take time — and that they are capable of making them!

A few things hand sewing builds in little ones:
🧵 Fine motor skills — those tiny stitches are serious brain + hand work!
🧵 Patience and focus — no shortcuts here, and that’s the whole point
🧵 Problem-solving — a knot, a mistake, a seam that doesn’t quite line up… and then figuring it out
🧵 Pride in making — there’s nothing like the look on a child’s face when they finish something they made with their own hands (as you can see on Oliver’s face at the end of the video 🥹)

If you’ve been thinking about introducing your child to sewing, start simple: A big needle, chunky thread, and a piece of felt can go a long way.

Have your kids tried hand sewing? I’d love to hear about it in the comments! 👇
