How to Sew a Pencil Case

How to Sew a Pencil Case


Aim: To sew a pencil case. 

Materials: sewing machine, fabric, needle, thread, button, scissors, bobbin

Instructions: 

1. Turn the sewing machine on and set the bobbin and thread. 

2. Plug the foot press in. 

3. Get your fabric and cut it into a rectangle. 

4. Fold one side of the fabric to the middle. Make sure that the fabric is length ways. 

5. Sew the bits that you have folded. 

6. Sew the button on the top centre piece of fabric that you just sewed. To do this you need to get the needle and the thread and rock it through the needle hole. Make sure that you put enough thread through then tie it twice at the ends of the thread. Then poke the needle into the hole of the button but not through to the other piece of fabric on the other side. Then pull the needle all the way through then poke through the hole next to the hole you just did and continue. 

7. Cut the thread when you have done it three times. When you have cut the thread, tie it twice. 

8. Then cut a hole the size of the button and in line with the button.

Outcome: Congratulations you have sewn a pencil case! So now you can take it to school and put all your stationery inside it!
