My Project

Sewing is becoming a lost art in our society. I want to help give my students up-to-date sewing equipment that will help get them excited to learn a skill that can benefit them for the rest of their lives.

The sewing kits can help cut the cost of their needed sewing supplies.

The computerized sewing machine will offer several stitches that they can learn to apply to their sewing projects. The serger will be a great asset in teaching them about seam finishes. I want my students to learn to love to sew new projects as well as how to repair clothing and other items, that a few simple stitches can fix.
