I have always been interested in learning how to sew, so I decided to take it as one of my experiences. I was a bit intimidated at first, but the as I learned it through online sources and tutorials from Youtube there demonstration was very patient and encouraging. as instructed I stared through the basics of threading a needle, making simple stiches, and using a sewing machine. I was amazed at how quickly I was able to make a simple project.

LO4 – Show perseverance and commitment in CAS experience

This experience was one of the experience I was overwhelmed for as for which I had to set some goals for myself and break them down into smaller, achievable tasks as for me sewing was something I have never done before and was something that I was self learning. There were times when I got confused and required help from my mom to move forward. other thing I learned through the learning process was not be afraid to make mistakes and learn from them and to value the success no mater how small. Through the learning process as I was gaining confidence on my skills I insisted on taking sewing projects that are outside of your comfort zone .I  have also learned that learning sewing is something that  requires patience but through this experience I had fun and did really enjoy the process.

LO6 – Engagement with issues of global significance.

The issue of global significance that I have engaged with this experiment only contribute was sustainability even though it was a small way but through this experience of learning how to sew my main goal was to learn how to sew a bag from unused clothe and turning them into bad that might be used for several purposes through the idea of upcycling of cloths contributing in sustainability . and avoiding the use of plastic bags and using bag made of cloths which can be reused several times.

LO7 -  Recognise and consider the ethics of choices and actions

Respect the environment: Consider the environmental impact of the cloths I reused and the processes with cloths to create my sewing projects. Choose cloths that are sustainable and use processes that are energy efficient . also by replacing plastic bag with cloth bag some ethical issues with the use of plastics can be reduced.
