Clothing 1 and FACS - Mrs. Banham- Family and Consumer Science

    Clothing 1

    Clothing is such an important part of our lives.  It affects everything from our attitude to our moods. I love this quote by Quentin Bell:

    "Our clothes are too much a part of us for most of us ever to be entirely indifferent to their condition:  it is as though the fabric were indeed a natural extension of the body, or even the soul."

    In this class you will be refining the skills you learned in FACS and adding to those skills.  You will learn how to care for your clothing and how to create clothing using  patterns.  You will learn skills that will be of life long value to you.
