NEW UPDATED VERSION. After teaching this project for a third year running, I have made some adjustments. It is now a full term’s sequence instead of half a term (approximately 10-12 weeks). I have edited it so there is a focus on the skills of sewing before the design process. This has been extremely beneficial for my children as they have had the opportunity to explore a range of stitches before they considered their design. There are video links included in the PPT for each stitch. The project includes a full project booklet, design brief and teaching slides to go alongside these. For older children, you could introduce a range of stitches - blanket, satin, chain stitch. For younger children, I would focus solely on running stitch with wider eyed needles and build to back stitch. You can use any type of material for this. Felt is easier to use but there are so many lovely fabrics that also work well. My year 6 children are using cotton squares that I have purchased and are sewing felt to the inside of them to cushion the device and add more protection. Older children might like to embellish their final design to add that intricate detail.
