Art, Week 5, Year I: Sewing by Hand

This week we began a sewing project! The K-3rd graders worked on drawstring bags, while the 4th-6th graders chose between 4 projects:

  1. hunter's satchel (the popular item!)
  2. winter hat
  3. coin purse
  4. picnic mat
The first week of a sewing project in a large group is always the toughest. Many of the students were sewing for the first time! By the end, they did not want to stop, though, so that is promising. I look forward to seeing how much students accomplish between now and next Monday.

Please help your children work on their projects. There are instructions uploaded on the Schola Rosa online suite at THIS site.
