How to Sew a Pencil Roll -Beginner 1 Sewing Ages 12-17

This class requires that the student have previous basic experience with a sewing machine or has taken the pre-requisite Intro to the Sewing Machine class. The students must be able to sew straight lines and corners, do a backstitch, and use the correct measurement lines on the stitch plate. 

(Please note my video says ages 7-12 but this specific class is for ages 12-17, same project though)

This class requires materials so you will want to plan ahead to have them ready to go before class starts to ensure the student can participate.

CLASS OUTLINE

Objective 1 - I will demonstrate how to put the pattern together and cut it. I will explain the pattern markings and how they relate to making the project. I will demonstrate how to cut the fabric by pinning correctly and cutting it accurately. Students will then perform the task.

Objective 2 - I'll demonstrate how to prepare the pocket piece and layer the fabric. Students will complete the tasks. They will then learn how to quilt the pocket piece into sections.

Objective 3 - I will explain the purpose of trimming corners and show the students how to do it. Students will then do this on their own. I will teach the students how to turn and push our corners and carefully press their project using the iron and pin it.

Objective 4 - Students will learn how to close the opening and edge stitch the project. Students will then be shown how to add their ribbon and they will complete their project.
