What articles you will make
As a club member, you will be required to complete two articles.
First you will make one practice article:
A case for your sewing shears.
Then you will make one main project article:
A barbecue placemat or a traveling kit.
Start your record book
Attend all your meetings so that you will be able to complete your project as soon as possible. When your home agent gives you a 4-H record book and record sheets, she wants you to record the work you do on your project. Give her this information in writing. Tell her how much you enjoyed making the articles and how much you and your family enjoyed using them.
Learn to give a demonstration
Show others what “tricks” you have learned by giving a demonstration at one of your club meetings, or ask your mother to invite your family friends to your home. It will be fun to use the placemats or show them your other projects. They will be interested in how they were made. Tell them what you did and what you learned about using your mother’s sewing machine and the sewing tools.
