all good suggestions.
i am guessing alot of them probably don't know how to sew but i figured working a sewing machine with help should be easy enough for those that don't know how to had sew.
we don't have any type of sewing or extra curricular stuff at schools here. no shop, no parenting, no music. we live in a small town and we used to have all that stuff but the school boards amalgumated(spelling?) a few years ago and the new schoolboard cut everything to schools outside their city limits.
