Sew Loka Day!!! 🧵🪡✨ Thirteen years ago, with a six-month-old baby girl and a head full of dreams, we opened the doors to Sew Loka. Today, those doors led us to the San Diego City Council chambers, where the City of San Diego @cityofsandiego @vivianmorenosd officially proclaimed February 13th as Sew Loka Day!!! 🙌🏽This shop gives our whole family purpose, and moments like this remind us why we pour everything we have into it. We were not born in San Diego — but this city is our home. It has embraced us, believed in us, and held us up in ways we could never fully express. To our friends, family, and community who have had our backs since day one: this proclamation belongs to you, too. It will be our lifelong duty to repay this city by giving back and making a positive impact on this generation and the next 🙏🏽💯Join us this Saturday, February 14th to celebrate Sew Loka Day and experience “Love, Always” — the first solo art show by the incredibly talented Selena Idioma @selenaidiomaart From 12pm–8pm, our studio will be filled with art, music @beaziebeats coffee @18citiescoffee an exclusive tote bag drop, and hands-on interactive activities for the whole family. This is a day of love, creativity, and community — and we want to see YOU!!! 😍And also mark your calendars for the following Saturday, February 21st, for “Sew Rebellious: Where Creativity Meets Cause” — a fundraiser workshop series in collaboration with Gabriela Ponce Curlango @gpwnce right here at the studio #barriologan Our goal? To raise $3K in one day for the ACLU through back-to-back tote bag sewing workshops featuring a one-day-only, limited edition patch design! 100% of proceeds go directly to the ACLU. Sign-up links are in our bio — more details coming soon ✊🏽Thank you, San Diego. From our family to yours — I promise you, we’re just getting started. 🪡🖤 by @sewloka

One of the most unique sewing studios in San Diego, run by an artist-owner with an incredible story 🧵✨Located in Barrio Logan is a true local gem, @sewloka, a community-driven studio where you can learn to sew and create pieces from scratch, like lounge pants, tote bags, zipper pouches, and more 👖👜🪡. Founded by Claudia, who learned to sew from her dad, a denim designer, the studio features designs inspired by her cultural heritage and Chicano identity, all within a welcoming space centered on slow fashion, creativity 🎨, and connection. We had a chance to talk to Claudia, and she has the best energy. Very inviting, funny, and passionate.Depending on the workshop or lesson, you’ll start by choosing your fabric 🧶, and from there, Claudia walks you through everything step by step, including how to use the sewing machine ✂️🪡. You can choose from group workshops or one-on-one lessons. Classes run every few days, so support a local business and create something you’ll feel proud wearing 💫📍 2113 Logan Ave Suite B, San Diego, CA 92113..#sandiego #barriologan #thingstodoinsandiego #uniqueactivities #sewingstudio #handmadefashion by @sewloka
