Come Make a Monster with Us

Grab a ticket, get creative, and spend an evening sewing a one-of-a-kind monster that’s entirely your own.

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

Not ready to book a private workshop? Just want to show up, sew something, and have a really good time? This is the page for you.

We regularly teach open to the public workshops at spaces around Knoxville, including Knox Makers, Ijams Nature Center, The Muse, and other community venues. Some are standalone craft nights and some are fundraisers for organizations and causes we believe in. All of them are a good time.

All materials and instruction are included to make a perfectly imperfect fleece monster. RSVP is required so we can make sure everyone has everything they need.

Most public workshops are open to all ages. A few are adult only, so be sure to check the details for each event. As a general guide, kids around eight to ten and up can usually sew their monster on their own. Kids five to nine will likely need a little help from a parent or grown-up along the way.

No experience necessary. No talent required. Just show up ready to make something perfectly imperfect.

Check back here for upcoming dates or follow us on social media so you never miss one.

Community Fundraiser Workshops

Some of our public workshops are more than just a craft night. They are a chance to make something beautiful while supporting something meaningful. In the past, we have raised funds for organizations like AKIN, and we are proud to continue partnering with causes that align with our values of creativity, community, and compassion. When you join one of these special workshops, you get to enjoy an evening of making and connection while also helping support an organization or cause doing meaningful work in our community. It’s a little monster-making with a little extra heart behind it.
