The Year 7 Textile class has begun their sewing journey this term by weaving felt bags (or hats) and learning how to sew on a button 🧵✂️
It’s great to see the students showing such a positive attitude and perseverance as they develop new skills and confidence in the sewing room. We’re excited to see what they create next!
