Impact Report Several craft, sewing and quilting workshops and classes were scheduled for county residents and extension homemaker members throughout the last year. The workshops ranged from beginning quilting to needle art, scrapbooking and beginner sewing. Twenty percent (20%) of the workshop participants signed up for another workshop upon completing their first class. Approximately half of those who signed up for a second class, choose a class to further their skills. While others choose classes to learn alternative skills. For insistence, those who had enrolled in the beginner quilting class, then enrolled in another quilting class to further their skills. Whereas others may have chosen to enroll in the needle art class rather than another quilting class. Eighty-five percent of the individuals who attended a workshop provided by the Lea County Extension Service, completed the project, and have moved onto other projects. Holiday craft workshops were provided for the general public, extension homemakers, and the parents of Headstart. Each of the class participants completed one or more projects during the allotted time period. Twenty-five percent of those participants, purchased additional supplies and made holiday crafts for family and friends. Several of the bulletins in the Clothing series have been updated within the last two years. In 2011, the home economist began working the Family Resource Management Specialist to revise the Designing Your Sewing Center publication. The publication was revised to add design ideas for other hobbies like general crafts, painting, and scrapbooking. New photography and images were researched, developed and added in for a new look.
