Nicole Dice

Founder & Instructor

At The Alliston Sewing School, we believe creativity is a life skill. When children work with their hands, they learn more than just how to sew — they build confidence, patience, and problem-solving abilities that carry into every part of life.

We teach in a supportive, encouraging environment where mistakes are part of the process and effort is always celebrated. Every project is an opportunity for growth, self-expression, and pride in what students can create.

Our philosophy is simple:
Teach real skills
Nurture creativity
Build confident, capable kids — one stitch at a time.

More than Sewing, it’s skill building.
