Had to learn hand sewing skills too and even darning with an darning egg. She suggested using an old light bulb as darning eggs were not easily available. The second year we were supposed to make a skirt. Her comment to me and a few other girls in the class that she didn't know what to do with us "hippy" girls (those of us starting to look like women) Silly me I tried to make a skirt with sewn down pleats, but somehow they were also overlapping at the waist<br />and it was just too difficult for a beginner. Reverted to a gathered skirt and passed the class. Only girls took Home Ec and only boys took Shop. What a stitch!!!

The Home Ec/travel down memory lane was fun. At my kids' school they now carry around dolls for a week (rather than eggs or flour sacks), have to do a scrapbook of their week together and then the dolls get donated to charity which is nice.Rene'https://www.blogger.com/profile/04059560899969549882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1443247585927280557.post-72724031982365442512010-02-20T20:19:59.957-05:002010-02-20T20:19:59.957-05:002 attempts at home ec and I never learned to sew. ...2 attempts at home ec and I never learned to sew.

Is that just a blue pen that washes out in water? <br /><br />In one of my high school classes we had to carry around dolls as our babies. Some people had flour sacks and I hear now they are actually interactive - cry at random times (even in the middle of the night!), need to eat, etc. And kids are docked points if the need is not met.

This is a great project.<br />I taught HEC for most of my teaching career (30 yrs) and I do think I was one of the best. My students (boys too) made duffle bags from pack cloth with zippers. When I visited the HS, I saw my former students carrying these around. We also made a charity quilt each of my last 3 years.Janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08535613151538197041noreply@blogger.com
