A few Reminders of what is coming up in 4H.

This coming Saturday (March 24th) is the County Super Saturday. Registration is whatever class fees + 2.50. Lunch is included.

Our next Club meeting will be April 12th. We will be having 3 demos by: Kiara, Ryan, and Shannon.

Last time we talked about taking measurements. I have asked them to take their measurements with a partner at home. If they will do this, I have a prize at our next meeting for them.
If they need some one on one help- Please contact me and we will find a time that I can help them.

They need to start deciding what projects they will be completing for our Summer Sewing camp. I would like them to choose a project that uses woven fabric like cotton, cotton-blend- (a broadcloth or flannel fabric.) Stay away from the knit fabric patterns, and fleece projects.

If your child has been in our 4H group for a while now- challenge them to find a pattern that is different than what they have already done. Perhaps a button down shirt or a matching set of skirt/shirt.

If your child is new to 4H Keep it Simple- PJ pants, shorts, elastic waist band skirts, or an apron. I have a few patterns they could use for these types of projects if you would like to use them. (I will need to know this in advance though)

With a Jo-Anns in town now- you might consider getting on their mailing list so you can find out when they have sales on patterns and fabric. When looking for patterns- look for the EASY or LEARN to SEW patterns- they tend to be more basic patterns.

Thanks for your Support of the 4H Awesomes!
