Sewing Class

I had sewing again and got lots done on my project but I am still not finished! It was so fun to talk with the other kids while I worked. The Teacher is so nice and even if you have never touched a sewing machine before she is the kind of person that you are not embarrassed to ask for help with. So she told me to Iron a seam and I did not understand how she wanted me to Iron it so I said "Will you show me?" And she did and did not act like it was silly for me to ask or anything! She was just totally willing to help me! That is why I like Sew Right so much! All of the people there are so willing to help you and do whatever you need. Even if you just come in and ask a question about some random project or your sewing machine they will genrally know the answer and help you right then and there! It is so nice! - Sewing Girl

First Sewing Class

Okay. So I had my first class today and it was totally awesome! The teacher reviewed how to use the sewing machine with me and then had me do some paper tests where you sew along the lines on a paper without the thread. After I did my paper test she taught me how to thread my machine and then had me pick a project and she said that since I had done enough sewing before I could do this really cute bag like the one they had on display. So I picked out the Fabric and they cut it for me and then pinned it and told me where to sew. I got a lot done today but I still have lots to go! Some of the other kids in my class are making pillow cases, book bags, skirts, pillows, all kinds of stuff. I am so excited to go back and make more stuff! - Sewing Girl

Sewing Excitment

Okay. So the only sewing I have ever done is what my Grandma has taught me which is basically how to make a sewing machine run and how to sew four corners and make a simple little thing. I hope I will be able to learn how to make something a little more difficult! - Sewing Girl
