Impact Report Summer Sewing Programs Two classes, one being one-half day long and the other a day-long class, were taught by the program assistant at Eastern New Mexico University – Roswell’s summer youth program, “Kids Kollege”. A total of 28 kids attended to learn basic sewing skills and safety. Students put their knowledge to use by completing either pillow cases or tote bags during the class to take home. Area youth received instruction on basic sewing skills and safety at 11 sewing classes given at the Yucca Recreational Center/Roswell Parks and Recreation Department during June and July. A total of 127 students learned about sewing terms, notions, and parts of the sewing machine and serger, learned how to thread the sewing machines, thread the bobbins, and safely completed a handmade project of either a pillowcase, tote bag, or a scrunchie for their use. All sewing programs teach the youth important life skills and assist them in becoming more productive and contributing members of society.
