The week of December 14th: Work on the snowman will be completed this week. Students created a hat for the snowman by using a rope stitch, backstitch and gathering stitch. The decoration is a button as are the eyes. Students also used the running stitch for the carrot nose and a chain stitch for the mouth. There are french knots and outlining of the intials. The snowman is sewed together with the blanket stitch and ready to be stuffed. We will then review the sewing machine and begin the first of two projects.
