CREATIVE SEWING - AGES 8-16
Let’s express our inner artists and have fun with the environment in mind! Ricochet is an entertaining studio where students learn how to design and create their own garments and accessories and learn to use their sewing machine independently from Jill Pillot, by up-cycling the unused garments and rescued materials.
Create your own solo, semi-solo, three-buddies or group class at your convenient time by appointment, and choose your language. (Jill can teach in English, Spanish, French and/or Dutch). This is also a great program for Homeschoolers.
Each student will have their own ONE-OF-A-KIND, EYE-CATCHING, INSPIRING DESIGNS that will for sure evoke compliments.

AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM
Looking for an empowering and exciting after school activity? Our After School Fashion Sewing Program for kids age 8 through 16 is an ongoing class for beginner to intermediate stitchers.

This is a great ongoing opportunity for learning practical and fun sewing skills! ~ Every Tuesday and Wednesday: 4pm - 6pm ~ Starting September through the end of June, there will be no After School Program during the summer. |

DROP-IN WORKSHOPS BY APPOINTMENT
Drop in and sew! Bring your projects, ideas and questions to our bright studio. Whether you're coming to meet with fellow sewing enthusiasts for some inspiration or to receive guidance from a professional designer, our studio offers a large space to spread out and sew, and an atmosphere fostering creativity, openness and fun! This is self-directed studio time; however, Jill will be available to answer questions or offer guidance. Space is limited so we recommend reserving your spot. Payment will be required upon reservation. All ages are welcome, but please note that sewing experience is necessary and children will not be supervised. ~Schedule your time with us!~ |

What You'll Learn
Our classes are focused on sewing projects that children will love to wear, as well as craft projects. Children choose their own projects. Sewing their own Wearable Art will provide an opportunity for students to express their creativity and learn to realize fashionable and eco-friendly clothing or accessories. Projects could be: a skirt, top, nightshirt, shorts, pants, bag, purse, softies and much more! Or, for the fall season, why not create the perfect unique Halloween costume, backpack or accessory for school! |
