Discovering the joy of sewing

On Monday, during Discovery, some of the Junior School children tried their hand at sewing.
We discovered different ways to thread the needle-Max said we need to wet the thread to get it through the needle. Well done Max for sharing...it worked.
Korus decided he would tie the thread onto the needle because it kept coming off...well done Korus! It worked because we used material called Hessian and a thick needle. The needle and the knot were able to pass through the Hessian easily.




We used a lot of perseverance to tie the knots.




Jasmeet was proud of the little bag she made.




Jasmeet wants to bring her bag back to Discovery next week to put her handle on. Great sewing Jasmeet...we love your small even stitches.
