About Us
We love to sew and we want you to love it too!
We are based in the Kansas City area. We love to sew and try new sewing and crafting techniques. You can often find us deliberating over and buying fabric for projects in our wonderful local quilt shops!
StitchPop for Kids wants to encourage and help kids and teens begin their own sewing journey with fun, informative and creative sewing projects. StitchPop for Kids also provides a wealth of information and tips for adults who are teaching kids and teens learn to sew.
Contact us anytime with your questions!
