Jammie Jamboree 2018 - 22

Eighteen 4-H youth ages 8 and older practiced beginning sewing skills while constructing pajama pants or shorts at the "4-H Jammie Jamboree" sewing workshop on March 3, 2018. Youth brought their sewing machine, sewing supplies, choice of fabric and pajama bottom pattern.

 

4-H'ers learned how to cut and measure fabric, use a pattern, use an iron to neatly press open seams, and thread and sew. Each sewer also had the opportunity to use a serger machine to finish seam edges.

 

Fair Clothing Superintendents hosted the workshop. Adult volunteers and parents were on hand for one-on-one guidance.

 

Locally, the 4-H youth development program is a partnership between Nebraska Extension and Lancaster County government. Learn more about the Lancaster County 4-H program at lancaster.unl.edu/4h.
