Filled and ready to go home. |
So the students did the initial sewing in class and then I finished them up. They even learned how to turn the ears inside out. Some of them were able to thread the ribbon through with the safety pin.
Stinkin' cute! |
We did this along with an egg drop (protect the egg and drop it from the ladder) instead of a party and big egg hunt and it was a huge success. I am not big on parties.
Love 'em! |
So with some help from my students I have a finish to report.
Disclaimer: While I did follow the directions found at this site - mostly - there were a few adaptions for the sake of ease for sewing with children. I did not print out the directions (too lazy) but free-handed ears on the 5" squares and that worked fine. I also just turned the fabric freely to get the lower curve on the face as the kids had the pedal to the metal. I did not make the buttonholes. I just cut a tiny slit and for the use it will get that will be fine. Some got ironed and some didn't. I do recommend taking the time to iron.
Those are really cute and I bet the kids had a great time helping with them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a idea! Including them in the process was truly a win-win! I'll bet your students will treasure those bunnies for a long time. How are you able to have 16 students in a class? You are so lucky!
