Week 5

Tuesday class

The stars took shape and they are well on their way to being completed.  Sewing the opening closed, sewing on a button, and sewing on the jute as a way to hang the star, is about all that is left.

We practiced the blind hem stitch to use to close the opening of the star - practice that if you are having problems getting the stitches even.

Add the vocab words we talked about to your list.  Practice any techniques that you feel need to be worked on. If you are short on strips, be sure to cut more for class.

I am providing the jute and buttons for the star, but if you have something else in mind to use, bring that along on Tuesday.

You are all doing a great job!
