Luna and her water bottle pouch.
I was most impressed by the initiative and creativity shown by Luna, a student in Year 4, towards an upcycling project. Enthused by the possibilities of her mum’s new sewing machine, Luna decided that she could use the fabric from her old school uniform to make a great water bottle bag that would both look fantastic and be really useful. The end result is wonderful and something she is rightly very proud of.
I got the idea because I always had to hold my water bottle in my hand and I wanted to learn how to sew on my mom’s sewing machine. We had some old uniforms that we used to sew with. I learnt to sew patterns, how to turn, how to tie the string and to sew left side against right side.
