Home Ec- Monday- 2nd period

[gobrookeyourself]

"Welcome to week two of sewing!" Brooke greeted the class once they'd all assembled in the home ec room. "Hopefully you got the feel for the sewing machine, because that's what we're going to be using today to make things. Now, you might think 'why do I have to make clothes, stores exist?' That's a good point, and also I invite you to check out Clothes Over Bros when you get a chance." What. "But maybe you don't have a lot of money to spend on clothes. Or maybe you just want to express your individuality more than just buying something off the rack. Or, maybe you have a shape or size that doesn't jive with mass produced standards and want to say screw it and do it yourself.

"So I've gone ahead and gotten a bunch of fabrics and pattens for you all to try out. There's some clothes, some bags, you can get really simple and try a pillow. I didn't get a pattern for that because it's a pillow. Pick one, or two if you turn out to be fast at this, and get to work on making something."
