In this class, we will use fleece and our sewing machines to make a mermaid tail for yourself or your doll! Students will learn about measuring out fabric, cutting it, how to use a pattern, and how to assemble our patterns inside out to hide our seams. Students will walk away from class with a completed project that they or their doll can use right away! Please make sure your learner knows how to use their sewing machine (changing stitches, sewing forward and backward, threading their machine, etc.), or please have a parent near by to assist. This blanket can also be made into a shark blanket. Please message me prior to class if you would like to make the shark version.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Whitney and I am so excited to have the opportunity to share my expertise with you! I have a Bachelors degree from Florida State University, and I have over 10 years of teaching experience. I have taught formally in a preschool classroom, and I currently teach ESL online. I have also taught horseback riding, rowing, canning, Sunday school, and I look forward to sharing my classroom with you!
I believe that learning should be FUN! Some times a bit messy, maybe a bit silly, but always full of smiles and laughter. I believe that we remember what we learn best when we remember the experience as a positive one. I also believe that life can be one of the greatest educators. I love to bring real life examples into my classes.
When I am not spending with my family and dogs, I enjoy teaching sewing classes, budgeting classes, science, English, art, and having a fun and educational story time for young learners. Often times, I will bring my dogs to class as teaching tools!
Thank you for viewing my profile, and I hope to see you in class soon!
