sewing

 Last Week we had our first lesson of sewing. The yr 8’s were split into two groups. Group one had Me, Uinita, Taijah, Maria , Soane, Jino, Gideon, and Ali-jon. First Wheae told us what we’ll be making during this term. We decided to make pencil cases for a start

We got straight into sewing and Whaea showed us how to cut out our fabric, pin and sew. After her lesson we got started. We cut our fabrics the size we wanted, *the smaller your size the harder to sew*.

After we got our fabrics we went onto our zips. Everyone found a zip that is the same length as their cut out fabric. We then pinned our zips onto the fabric. Then after we pinned, we started sewing. We sewed and sewed ‘til we finished sewing the zips on.

Whaea gave us instructions to step 2, pinning the sides. We pinned what was needed to be pinned and then got onto sewing. Whaea showed us what needed to be sewed. We sewed a lot of times and after so many mistakes we finally succeeded. Thank you Whaea for teaching us how to make a pencil case.
