Fun with Fabric


At the end of our clothes unit, we had a special treat! Mrs. Jenny Hall came to show us how she creates patterns to make clothing.  It was so much fun for the students to see how quickly fabric can be cut and sewn into clothes!   Thanks Mrs. Jenny for such a fun visit!

She showed us how she slides elastic into PJ pants to make the waistband stretchy.

She even followed her pattern and cut a dress out for Catherine!

We learned that wool can be used for coats, satin for dresses, fleece for baby blankets, and lycra for bathing suits.

We loved our visit!  Catherine, please tell mommy to come back again real soon! :)
