Year 4 DT – Making Cushions

As part of our new Design and Technology topic, Making Cushions, Year 4 pupils have been developing their sewing and textile skills. The children began by learning how to safely thread a needle, demonstrating excellent concentration and fine motor control. They then practised a range of sewing techniques, including cross-stitch and appliqué, which they will use when designing and creating their own cushions. The pupils have shown great perseverance and creativity as they develop these new practical skills.
