Sewing Club Makes Stuffed Animals with Recycled Jeans

Today the CHAH Sewing Club began up-cycling donated jeans into stuffed animals. They're using a whale pattern inspired by a Finnish blogger. Here you can see them cutting the pattern out of paper, and then cutting into the fabric.

The students love working with their hands and making a product they can be proud of.

Up-cycling existing materials is a great way to give new life to old fabric and express your creativity. It's good for the environment too!
