Comfortable Creative Cushions
By Angela Burden | Posted: Saturday March 14, 2026
Our Year 7 ākonga have gained new skills in our Fabrics room.
In Year 7, ākonga learn how to set up their sewing machine and sew; straight lines, corner pivots and reverse.
Practise makes progress and in eleven sessions they create a cushion inner and cover for a chosen stakeholder.
All Ākonga make progress and gain confidence using a variety of tools.
Celebrate their first functional and fabulous outcome made using soft materials.
Well done to everyone who is proud of the effort they put in to making their cushion!
