Sewing Class Graduation

Another class has completed the three year sewing course.  Students learn to make patterns to custom fit their own measurements while learning the basics of sewing.  After completing the course, students can make their own clothes, children's school uniforms, and do alterations. 

Sewing classes were first begun five years ago when St. Gregory's donated money to buy five pedal sewing machines.  The sewing room was later updated thanks to a kind individual's donation.  People who have a skill are one step closer to independence.  St. Marie Madeleine Parish is doing everything possible to give people an opportunity for a better life.
