Thrillin Tuesdays....

Tuesday is our fullest day of sewing classes... so to say the least it is full of excitement!

We start the day with Natalie, Lillie and Landry.. these girls are always full of excitement...

Landry finished a strip skirt she was making

Lillie did some sewing on a job for us

And Natalie finished sewing a skirt she was making...she learned how to make pleats today!

Macy and Hallie came and they finished their doll blankets...in it they learned how to sew straight lines, sew on buttons and pivoting! But we forgot to take pictures...so you will have to see them next week!

Serina and Sophia came also! Serina started a jacket for herself...She only cut out today, but that was a big task to conquer...and she did it!

Sophia continued sewing a jacket for herself...She was practicing reading the instructions and figuring them out as much as she could on her own...she did pretty well at it!

Gwen and Cooper then came and cooper continued sewing a bean bag chair for himself!

Gwen finished her doll robe and began sewing another set of doll clothes!

Thursday's Sewing Class...

Beth cut out her pattern. She is making a jean dress. After cutting the pattern, she started off with reading the pattern. She was learning how to create a placket in the front of the dress. A placket overlaps and you put buttonholes and buttons on it.

Juanita was working on her dress for herself...She was learning about gathering skirts and making sure everything laid evenly. She was also furthering her pattern reading skills.

Later Jayden and Hannah came to class.

 Hannah started making sweat pants for herself. She cut out the pattern, and pieced the entire main part of the pants in one class.

Jayden brought a blanket in that she needed to fix. She fixed it and immediately moved on to making a cosmetic bag for her mom. Jayden was practicing cutting out and sewing the entire bag without help. She did a great job at cutting her lining, interfacing and main fabric. This bag has a zipper. Although she needed some help with putting it in, she did great!
