The fourth meeting of the
Wawanosh 4-H Club Sewanosh
project was held on Saturday, July
14 at the Auburn Hall. Once all
members had arrived, President
Abby opened the meeting with the
pledge and then roll call which was
"show your pattern and fabric and
give names of fibre content and care
instructions." The club then went
around and showed their projects,
informing the club on the fiber of
their fabric. Leader Cathy then
showed Kayla's project to the
members and explained interfacing
and how to overcome a sizing
problem. Cathy then explained some
information about seams to the club,
using Kayla's project as an example.
After all the business, the club got
to work. Cassandra and Loretta went
with Marilyn to finish their pajamas,
Kayla and Melina went with Cathy
to work on their pajamas, and then
Amanda and Abby went with Mary
Ellen to sew various types of seams
including French, flat seam and
pinked seams.
Members then took a well-
deserved break and after that opened
the fifth meeting with the pledge and
roll call, which was a fill -in -the -
blanks exercise about seams.
Cassandra also handed the creative
title page she made to the club.
Next, achievement was brought
up. Amanda suggested that the club
visit the "Sew on Fire" group from
Blyth to view the various items they
sew and send to various charities and
the club agreed that would be a great
idea.
With that decided, the club
returned to work finishing either
their pajamas or their seams. When
everyone finished their projects,
Abby closed the meeting with the
motto and members cleaned up. The
next meeting is Thursday, July 26.
