Description:
Little kids will learn the basics of hand sewing as a they create a set of 5 stuffed animal friends from the jungle: a tamed tiger, mischievous monkey, precocious parrot, silly snake, and playful panda. Kids will learn sewing skills such as pinning and placement, a running stitch, attaching a button, working with a pattern, scissor skills, and stuffing. The group will be working with pre-cut felt components from kits that will be enhanced with buttons and accessories. Since students may work at different rates, any animals not completed in the camp will be sent home to finish sewing with the newly learned skills. Students should be at age/grade level for fine motor skills for this class, and should be a minimum of age 6. A supply fee of $24.00 is due payable to the teacher on the first day of class.
