2019 October,

2019 June, Lauren came along to Sew What Club, looking to mend a corduroy bag. She ending up constructing a cool pair of brown corduroy overalls. Here she is going out in them on Friday night. Lauren has the spirit of an up-cycler/ a recycler/ a carer of the earth's resources. I love her sew what attitude!

2019 May, Milla has made a very successful drawstring bag. She sussed out the pattern online and worked her way through the steps of construction, creating a rather cool outcome. Excellent work Milla!

2019 May, Nele came along to Sew What Club and created a circle cushion with a very effective pasifika motif. She sewed a button on for the centre piece. Good work Nele

Piper is a very switched on Yr.7 student who attends Sew What Club.

She researched a very cool "origami" style bag online, and worked out how to do it. Very impressive Piper. You are displaying very good skills, thinking through instructions and comprehending diagrams.

Keep at it Piper.

Gina has just finished the quilt she is making for her cat, Cuddles. On some of the squares she has stitched an outline of a cat's face, whiskers and all. It's so effective. Great effort Gina!

Gina has progressed to creating this wonderfully shaped faux leather bustier. It is going to be held on with elastic. Fab 'Sew What Club' work from a Yr. 9 student!
