Make Your Own Halloween Tote Bag! - Forest Arts Centre

Make Your Own Halloween Tote Bag! - Forest Arts Centre logo

Get creative this Halloween! In this fun and beginner-friendly sewing workshop, children will learn how to make their very own Halloween-themed tote bags using colourful, seasonal fabrics. Perfect for trick-or-treating, these bags are not only practical but also a great introduction to the basics of sewing.

Led by an experienced tutor, this session is designed to be accessible and confidence-boosting—even for complete beginners. It’s the same project we use to welcome new students into the world of sewing, making it a perfect first step into a lifelong skill.

By the end of the session, each child will take home a handmade tote bag they’ll be proud of and ready to fill with Halloween treats!
