On BBC 1 there is a programme called ‘The Sewing Bee’ – there are 3 parts
The Pattern Challenge
The Makeover Challenge
The Made to Measure Challenge – let’s rethink this challenge!
The Methlick School Eco Sewing Bee – Pattern Challenge
To follow the pattern to succeed
The Methlick School Eco Sewing Bee –Β Makeover Challenge
To ‘makeover’ an old piece of clothing and turn it into a bee or any pollinator of your choice!
Each week on the television programme contestants are given an everyday item to makeover into a new item in a very short amount of time. Last week each contestant had a sleeping bag and they had to make a children’s costume. The results were amazing!
The Methlick School Eco Sewing Bee Cardboard Challenge
No fabric then why not try this cardboard sewing challenge instead!
I hope you enjoy taking part in one of these challenges or inventing your own!

My daughter was bored on Saturday. It was snowing! She was grumbling! Eventually she agreed to have a go at making a bee and she surprised herself! She made her own pattern and sewed from lunchtime until late evening until she finished! Sewing is a very important skill for her future career as she is studying to become a vet so this was good practise as well.
Making, sewing, building, tinkering away at a project in your imagination can be very absorbing. You can forget about everything around you for a while!
Good Morning Ms Rossvoll
What wonderful beesππ»π. All different, just like the real thing.
I can’t wait to trying making some of the others to keep my pompom bee (I’ve called her Bea, short for Beatrice) company.
Will keep you posted.
Thank you so much for sharing your idea – wonderful name!
