Seam Allowance and Pivoting


Welcome back to Term Three at FFC!

This week, the Year 9's have been introduced to the Textile's room and are starting to become acquainted with the Bernina sewing machines, the layout of the room, and the fabulous things they will get to make. 
The Year 10's have been re-acquainted with the Textile's room and recapped prior learning.

Here's a picture of some of their learning today.

Nearly There!!



















It is close to the end of term and there has been some fabulous work going on in the FFC Textile’s room. The Year 9 Soft Toys are nearly all complete and the Year 10 Hoodies are at the same point. Well done to all the students who have maximised their time in class and put their newfound knowledge and skills to good use. There has been some challenges along the way, and it’s been great to see the students supporting one another and coming up with creative ways to problem solve. Both the Year 9 and Year 10 groups have been a pleasure to teach and I’m going to miss the supportive and positive environment that’s been created over the first half of this year. Put those sewing skills to good use over the holidays and I look forward to seeing you in Textile’s next year.
