Making a Pinny.


We needed a lot of concentration to get our pinny made. First we talked about the size that it would need to be so that it would fit the girls. That required a lot of measurements and number work. We made a tiny little pinny first to see how it would look, before we made a larger 
sized pinny out of paper.




Then it was time to use the pattern to cut out the material and to begin sewing. The anticipation of using the sewing machine was quite high with a lot of questions about when they could have their turn.







Once we had cut the pattern out together and pinned pieces of material, we were ready to use the sewing machine... and that was such a lot of fun and it took quite a bit of expertise in using the foot at just the right amount of pressure. The concentration on their faces says it all!










Now that we have finished the pinny, it’s time to start embroidering it!!!
