Primary 5.1 got into the spirit of Valentine’s Day by learning to sew their very own lovebug that they could gift to someone special. 🥰

The class were introduced to proper sewing needles and the few pupils who had experience of sewing shared their knowledge and tips with the class. We then got started on marking and cutting our colourful felt, learning how to create a running stitch.we then applied it so we could fasten the two sheets of felt together.

Once our lovebug was sewn, we stuffed it full of fluff and closed the gap with our needle and thread. We were very careful with our sewing needles but we gained lots of confidence once we started sewing.

Lastly we added some googly eyes and gave our lovebug a name. 💕 Did a little lovebug turn up in your house?
