Sew Cool 4-H Club Meeting

Tuesday, February 16 from 3:30 to 5pm

Haywood County Cooperative Extension Center

The club is open to 4-H’ers who have completed their annual enrollment form and are at least 9 years old as of January 1, during the current year. We will begin with a review of techniques - perfect for beginners too.  During the technique portion, March through May, 4-H’ers will learn hand sewing techniques, closures, buttons, and simple sewing construction.  4-H’ers will be responsible for techniques they learn. The 4-H motto is  learn-by-doing! 4-H’ers need bring all materials to club meetings and come to club meetings ready to learn and listen to directions from club leaders.  The club is designed to be a classroom setting where youth can come and learn basic sewing techniques.  The meeting will be used to discuss potential meeting dates and a snow policy.  For more information call the Extension Office at 456-3575.
