Sewing stars continued!

Ms Travers was so impressed with how brilliant we were at sewing our snowmen that she decided we could be challenged to make Christmas trees. These Christmas trees were a little more difficult! 

First we had to sew buttons onto our trees. We learned how to backstitch to make sure that our buttons were nice and secure. Next we had to sew the ribbon onto the back of our decoration (what a pity it would be if we couldn't hang our beautiful creations on our tree this Christmas!!) Then we had to sew the two pieces of our tree together. We had to make sure we left enough space to add the stuffing though before we put in the last few stitches. 








Now we have Christmas trees and snowmen to hang on the tree in our classroom!
