The Sewing Labs

Join us for a relaxing and creative afternoon as you design and sew a one of a kind shawl with Robert’s expert guidance. Choose from a curated selection of beautiful fabrics provided by The Sewing Labs and personalize your piece with optional trims, buttons, fringe, or beads. You are also welcome to bring your own embellishments to make your shawl truly unique.

What is a Shawl?
A shawl is a versatile and timeless garment, worn loosely over the shoulders, upper body, and sometimes the head. Unlike a poncho, a shawl features a front opening, making it easy to style and layer over any outfit. Whether you keep it simple with a clean hem or add extra flair with decorative trims, your finished piece will be as stylish as it is functional.

This project is a wonderful way to explore fabric and form and a perfect canvas for future embellishment or personal touches at home. Shawls are flattering on all body types and make a beautiful addition to any wardrobe, whether you are dressing up or just adding a little extra warmth.

Let your creativity shine while learning foundational sewing techniques in a fun, supportive environment.
