Sewing Squad

A FREE sewing program taught by Threaded Together Mentors at schools and community centers. Kids learn the basics of hand and machine sewing, with an emphasis on resourcefulness and repurposing. We believe kids should have every opportunity to work with their hands, learn practical skills, and explore their creativity. Our Sewing Squad program provides FREE, after-school sewing opportunities for kids and teens in our community. Designed to be taught in schools and community centers, our Sewing Squad curriculum teaches the basics of hand and machine sewing, while also promoting development of the 5 P’s: Patience, Persistence, Problem Solving, Precision, and Positivity. Threaded Together provides all materials, equipment, and instruction for qualifying organizations. If you are a teacher or administrator in Flagstaff, AZ and are interested in partnering with us to develop a Sewing Squad program for your students, please contact us! 

Create + Connect

Get Support on your creative journey, build skills, and cultivate autonomy during Create + Connect! Under the guidance of Threaded Together Sewists, you'll be invited to use our sewing machines, tools, and studio space to bring your creative vision to life (whether that's making something new, or mending something old). 

On Wednesday afternoons (5:30-7:30 pm), we offer free open studio hours for adults, and on Thursdays (3:00-5:00 pm) those hours are open to teens. This program is designed to make sewing and fiber arts more accessible for everyone. Create + Connect is free and open to all, with the support of participants and the Arizona Community Foundation.
