NeedleWorkMonday: Sewing a Duster for the Class Today
Today was a quite a nice one...
In the early hours of the day, I went into the classroom to teach and so did not see a duster to wipe the chalkboard. I decided to get some pieces of clothes around the school premises.
On getting this, I collected a needle from one of the staff to sow a duster.
It's actually fun doing this...First off, I folded one of the materials into two equal part and used the needle which was already fixed with a thread in sowing.
I continued sowing till I made a U-shaped turn on the material.
This is when I had an open space so I could put all the rest of the pieces of clothes inside of the sowed material.
This is how I made a duster with some wasted pieces of clothes...this I used in wiping the chalkboard for use in School today...this is fun to be frank!!
That looks great! It's a good idea, you can use every old scrap to fill it. And it teaches the kids to use their imagination when they have a problem - often you can help yourself! Perhaps make one with differently colored sides? So you know with one glance which is the side for the wiping and which is the side for taking it in the hand.
Clever use of left over fabric, much better to sew into something helpful. And good you were able to clean the board :-) I hope to hear more of your spontaneous needlework and therefore I want to welcome you into the @needleworkmonday community <3

It's so nice of you to make your own duster. When I was in school, our teachers made every student make a duster and submit
