Ages 11-14: 1C36 *NEW* Plush Pet Studio Week 10 AM
Summer Camp | Available
Bring your animal companions to life in soft, huggable form. We’ll celebrate our beloved pet (or a pet we’d like to have) in this creative sewing studio devoted entirely to plush animals. Using photos or drawings for inspiration, you’ll design and sew a custom plush based on your best pet friend – or if you prefer, invent a dream creature from scratch. The week focuses on shaping expressive features and adapting patterns to match unique traits, whether it’s fluffy ears, short legs, unique markings or a curly tail. It’s a perfect blend of skill-building, heartfelt creativity and just chilling with friends – both human and animal!
