More sewing!

The sixth graders have continued sewing this week. They didn't stop with just a button. Each student selected a pattern design of their choice and used their newly acquired hand-sewing skills to sew a miniature pillow or ornament. The students are using felt and embroidery floss to complete their projects.

The students were very creative in their design choices. They have been using the "back stitch" and blanket stitch" to sew their pillows.

Have a wonderful winter break!

Sincerely,
Mrs. J. Bretl
