Want to learn how to sew?
Interested in how to sew clothes for real life?
Connie's SEWING DVD instructs students with efficient techniques to learn how to sew in this fast-paced world. This DVD allows students to learn at their own pace. These sewing skills are designed to build knowledge progressively. The student learns the basics of sewing as well as how to assemble a garment in a logical and time efficient sequence. Students will complete a project that encourages them to sew more and more. This DVD will be useful for sewing labs, fabric stores, 4H groups, Girl Scout groups, home educators as well as traditional school curriculum. As students learn how to sew, they will also learn the construction process. With time and practice they will refine the skills presented throughout the DVD and obtain a greater ability to construct any garment.
