The art of sewing
This week as part of their on going topics for Design & Technology, the year 2 children were learning about sewing and working with fabrics. During this workshop, the children learnt how to do a running stitch.
Using their newly found skills, the children were tasked with designing and building a purse or a pouch. They could decorate their purse in whatever way they wanted using the materials provided. The children did a fantastic job and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. We took some pictures of the finished purses, which can be seen in the gallery below.
