Sewing & Beyond:
Where independence meets innovation.
We guide advanced students as they develop their own creative vision and master professional-level design skills.
Hands-on learning with professional machines and real fabrics!
When They're Ready to Create Their Own Path
Your young creator has mastered techniques, conquered complex construction, and built real expertise.
They know their way around professional methods, and now they're ready for the ultimate challenge: independent creation, original design, and developing their unique creative voice.
Now, they need studio space, expert guidance, and the freedom to explore their own design ideas while building the skills that transform makers into designers.
Sewing & Beyond is where advanced students transition from following patterns to creating their own designs, developing the independence and innovation skills that define true artisans.

What Parents Are Saying
"Laikyn Gray recently took a sewing class at Sew Simple Sewing in Lawrence instantly fell in love with sewing. Brynn and I surprised her with her own sewing setup for Christmas this year. She hasn’t been on an electronic device all day, which is awesome."
