School Bags...

 
Yesterday was the last of my textile lessons, I have worked with the same class for two hours a week for the last four weeks. I have really enjoyed it and learnt alot myself! Yesterday we made medium sized lined tote bags. As I wanted to complete the project in one go, I cut out all the fabric at home ready for the girls to sew.


The girls did really well and some added buttons they covered themselves...


This one I really like, the student accidentally put the handles on the side bit instead of the top but I really like the result...


And this one is just gorgeous - with applique and a button brooch. I have serious competition!

  2. LOL, I thought that one was the prototype. Oooo, she'll be after your job.
    Just goes to show what a great teacher they have had. I think they have done really well.
    Have a fun weekend,

  3. Hi Kate,
    They are fab, well done to you and your students!
    I always cut out all the materials in advance otherwise the kids spend most of the lesson doing that!!
    Do you have plans for more sessions?
