I love putting together a sewing or a craft workshop just for you! They are sort of a combination between a birthday party and a girls night out. Choose a project and we can start an individual sewing session like parent/kid sewing, girls night out or the Kreativlabor Mini class just for BFF’s. The workshop takes place at Das Kreativlabor in Oberwil.

She creates an environment that encourages the love for crafting, creativity and learning.
