Home Economics: Clothing

 4-H has an extensive Clothing Project, with an impressive list of topics.  If you want to learn how to sew along with your family, try  Sewing for Beginners or Clothing and Textiles, Beginning Sewing Skills. There are photos and images.  Look at the Clothing and Textile Overview.  Here is a project guide and here is a leader guide to give you topic ideas.  I love the idea of modifying second hand clothes with Frugal Fashion.  Here is an advanced project, The Economics of Clothing Purchases.  

There are loads of free sewing patterns: Mood Fabric’s Rosalie Shirt Dress (many free patterns), Craft Gossip’s Easy Pillowcase Dress, Joann’s Reversible Triangle Tote (upload any patterns you like to Drive—Joann’s is out of business), and this sock elephant.  Sewing is so fun and practical!  Make sewing another elective!
