Dallas Public Library’s Sewing Club is a project-led meetup for teens and adults. Bring your own work and, if you prefer, your own machine; using a library machine requires registration, orientation and a signed waiver.
All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
The Sewing Club puts the project choice in participants’ hands: bring something of your own to work on alongside other sewers. The main planning question is equipment. Vickery Park has library sewing machines when available, but anyone who needs one must register and complete the required preparation first.
The event listing describes a shared sewing session built around participants’ own projects, not a single assignment for the group. It does not announce a particular lesson or technique, so bring work you want to continue rather than expecting a specified class project.
A personal sewing machine is welcome. Library machines are available only as availability permits, and registration is required if you need to use one. The listing does not give a machine count or clarify whether people bringing their own machines also need to register; check with Vickery Park staff if that affects your plans.

Anyone using a library machine must complete an orientation and sign a waiver before the club. The event listing links both a Fiber Arts Workroom page and a Creative Spaces training course, but it does not spell out the exact orientation process for this session.
The linked Fiber Arts Workroom is a separate resource on the fourth floor of the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library, not the Vickery Park meeting location. Its August 2026 update says online training is temporarily unavailable and directs users to arrange accompanying training by email or in person. Confirm with Vickery Park which steps apply to Sewing Club before relying on those options.

The event is listed for teens ages 13–17 and adults 18+. A participant under 18 who will use a library machine needs a parent or guardian to sign the waiver in front of a notary. Vickery Park is a listed library notary location, but service availability varies and notary services are provided during regular business hours. Since the club meets on Sunday afternoon, do not assume the notary will be available during the session; the event asks families who need this service to contact branch staff.

The calendar lists four Sunday occurrences, all with the same Sewing Club title and time. No separate activity or project is announced for any one date.
November 15 and 29, and December 13 and 27, 2026. Each session runs from 12:00 to 2:30 p.m. These are the dates currently listed; they do not establish whether more sessions will be added.

The event takes place at 8333 Park Ln, Dallas, TX 75231. The event listing names Dawson Mellon as its contact and gives the Vickery Park phone number as (214) 671-2101.
Dallas Public Library says its programs are free and open to the public. Registration is required if you need a library sewing machine; the listing does not state a separate admission charge.

You may bring your own machine. Library machines are provided only when available, and users who need one must register, complete the orientation and sign a waiver before sewing. The listing does not specify how many machines are available or whether people bringing their own must register.
The Fiber Arts Workroom page’s August 2026 update says online training is temporarily unavailable; accompanying training is offered by email at [email protected] or in person. That page refers to the Central Library workroom, so ask Vickery Park staff whether those options meet this club’s requirement.

A parent or guardian must sign the waiver in front of a notary for a participant under 18 who will use a library machine. Contact Vickery Park staff in advance about the waiver and notary; the library lists Vickery Park as a notary location, but availability varies and service is offered during regular business hours. Call (214) 671-2101 rather than assuming a notary will be available during the Sunday club.
Library notary service is free and limited to two documents or two visits per person per month, whichever comes first. Documents must be in English, complete and ready for signature, and include a notarial certificate of acknowledgment; the notary cannot choose that certificate for you. Everyone named on a document must be present and bring current, valid U.S. federal- or state-issued photo ID; foreign passports and other non-U.S. identification are not accepted. If a document requires witnesses, bring them—library staff and other customers cannot serve as witnesses.
