Join me at Camp Workroom Social!

Brooks Ann Camper Bridal Couture

When Jennifer Wiese of Camp Workroom Social asked if I would be interested in teaching at her sewing retreat this Fall, it made me fall out of my chair (almost). Camp Workroom Social is a sleepaway camp for grown-ups who love to sew. And as much fun as that sounds, it gets better…

Camp Workroom Social is not a typical sewing retreat. It’s a new approach to sewing education. At Camp Workroom Social, perfection is not the goal, learning is. It’s an escape from your everyday routine where you can socialize and learn from other adults who share your enthusiasm for sewing. I can’t imagine a more fun and productive way to spend a weekend!

Needless to say, I said “yes”!

The Line Up

The five teachers I’m lined up with are total sewing stars! Can you believe this list of classes and teachers?

Camp 2016 features the following six courses:

And in our free time we do camp stuff: hiking, zip lining, rock climbing, yoga, camp fires, smores…

Couture Hand Sewing Intensive

My course will be all about upping your hand sewing game! I absolutely love hand sewing and can’t wait to share techniques for how to thread a needle, tie a knot, and use a thimble, as well as how to use hand sewing to create clever closures, fancy finishes, and much more!

In class, campers will create a notebook full of sewing samples to reference for future projects. All skill levels are welcome!

Some classes have already sold out, but there are still some spots left in my course! CLICK HERE TO REGISTER.

Hi there! I'm Brooks Ann.

I’m a former professional costumer and couture dressmaker for one-of-a-kind bridalwear located in Hillsborough, North Carolina, who teaches custom garment sewing too the sew-curious online.

My blog mostly follows along with the couture process of how each heirloom-quality custom wedding dress was made from idea to wedding day, as well as other interesting tidbits related to sewing, weddings, and body positivity.
