Teen Stitchers' Summer Club offers young makers between 13 and 17 years a chance to craft a unique something. Over five consecutive weekday sessions, teenagers will learn skills to create a laptop bag. They will be introduced to fabric selection, quilting, patchwork, zipper application, pocket construction and finishing techniques using Usha Janome sewing machines. This project offers to encourage teens to create an accessory that reflects their personality through carefully chosen fabrics and customised details. Participants can add their name, initials or a meaningful word to make the piece uniquely their own.

"Today's teenagers are constantly looking for ways to express their individuality. We wanted to create a project that was not only practical and relevant to their daily lives, but also something they could genuinely call their own," says Amaara Sangam, business head, The Hab by Usha. Designed for beginners, the workshop guides participants through every stage of the creative process, from concept to completion.
