Independent Living Workshop: Students Honing Their Sewing Skills

Tuesday, March 31, 2026

Tuesday March 31 and April 7, 2026

FOCB’s IL instructor, Luz Norris, led FOCB students in a workshop on practicing their sewing skills. They used the Colorino device that tells you the colors of the fabrics and thread you are choosing. Students also used special needles for the visually impaired they put into a bar of soap to hold it upright and make easier to thread. Then they finished sewing fabric squares, stuffing them with matting, and adding different bells or baubles to put on the outside. Great job, crafters!
