FCA "Project Runway"....

The girls have "dubbed" our sewing class as the "Project Runway" of FCA!  These girls are such a blast to teach!  I have enjoyed this  so much....and I think they have too! :)


Kimmy, Autumn and Meriah... divas for the day!


Lydia and Brittany sewing....

  The first couple of weeks, we worked on learning to cut fabric with the rotary cutter, sewing straight lines, and then they girls took on their first project.... A Monogrammed Pillow!  Here's the results!



The girls were soooo proud of their accomplishment!

As you can see...the girls did an EXCELLENT job...considering they all just started sewing.   This week we started  on a stripped quilt project.  I can't wait to see how they turn out!!

We'd love to know you are reading our blog!

The first month is over...and we're doing GREAT!

Wow...I'm amazed that we've completed our first month, and our students have accomplished so much!  We are soooo PROUD of them!!

  We have what we call our "500" Club...the only way to get into this club is to have 5.."100's" on your tests.  Well, so far we have 3  that have accomplished this:

All of my students in the Lower Learning Center have learned their 1st months scripture:  Deut. 6:4-9
