Fabric Arts: Crocheting and Sewing

Cora tried taking a Crocheting at Largo Learning Academy Co-op and Sewing for Technique and Wearability at Love of Learning Co-op. Although she was very good at crocheting she decided that she didn't enjoy it. The sewing class started out slow but ended quite well with Cora creating a lovely bag. [Art, Fabric Arts]
