(Entertainment-NewsWire.com, February 15, 2016 ) Portland, WA -- The new brand Sew First has just launched their first product, a beginners sewing kit for kids. This is now available on Amazon.
The product on offer is a kit in a little cardboard suitcase that makes six cute sewing projects. Two of these projects make sewing accessories; a cat needle case and a mouse pin cushion. It is hoped that these accessories will form part of the child's sewing history and be just the start of a sewing adventure, full of memories for years to come. The kit also makes four cute animals as the creators at Sew First believe that the kit should be fun to use. All of the projects are made in felt, an easy fabric for new sewers to work with as it doesn't fray and is firm but soft and flexible.
It was decided that Sew First wanted to share their product on Amazon, and after many months of trials and development it is now ready for children to learn to hand sew.
Hand sewing can be used as a forerunner for machine sewing or for a creative pastime in it's own right. When practiced it can enable basic clothes to be constructed, or embroidery to be pursued and gives a huge sense of accomplishment.
On her online sewing tutorial for kids, Sandi of Yellowspool.com says, "Basic hand stitching is a good introduction to sewing with a sewing machine for anyone, but especially for children. It helps them get a feel for the needle and thread, and a basic understanding of what "sewing" is. Teaching kids to sew is such a great way to encourage creativity, independence, and self sufficiency."
Like an online tutorial the Sew First beginners kit instructions include all the detail needed to get started; the length to cut the thread and how to tie a knot at the end of it. There are diagrams for starting sewing, the distance between and sizing of stitches, the method for running stitch and oversew and finishing off the thread.
Unlike an online tutorial, this kit provides all the sewing materials that a child will need to complete the projects and a case to store them in.This makes it ideal for a present and for those who have less time or confidence to shop for all the individual supplies needed to start a child sewing and to make or buy patterns.
The brand Sew First creates quality sewing kits for kids. Their aim is to produce a premium product that will provide hours of sewing fun and creativity. More information can be found at http://www.sewfirst.com.
