Vermont Students Invited to Apply<br />

• • •<br />

for Governor’s Institute Winter<br />

4-H Sewing Clinic Fosters Creativity<br />

A dozen young people gathered on Dec. 1<br />

for a sewing clinic at University of Vermont<br />

(UVM) Extension’s office in Berlin.<br />

The clinic was coordinated by UVM<br />

Extension 4-H in Orange and Washington<br />

Counties and open to both 4-H’ers and non-<br />

4-H members, ages 8 to <strong>18</strong>. Projects and<br />

instruction were based on level of sewing<br />

experience.<br />

The intermediate and advanced sewers<br />

worked with Chris Pratt, Bradford, and Betty<br />

Hammond, Barre, to design and create their<br />

own bags from scratch. They drafted sketches,<br />

learned how to make their own patterns<br />

and measured and cut their own fabric to sew<br />

a custom-designed bag.<br />

Novice sewers explored the inner workings<br />

and functions of the sewing machine through<br />

a fun exercise in which they were given a list<br />

of parts and definitions to try to identify parts<br />

of the machine. They also worked on several<br />

simple sewing projects.<br />

With Cecile Johnston, owner of Jumping<br />

Raindrops Sewing and Design in Montpelier,<br />

they sewed quilt block potholders. Sally<br />

DeCicco, also from Montpelier, worked with<br />

them to make no-sew dog chew toys and<br />

creations, repurposing old clothing such as<br />

t-shirts, ties, and jeans into accessories and<br />

other new items. Others learned how to use<br />

their finished products, which included a<br />

light for visibility.<br />

Holiday Tips for Parents<br />

DON’T SUPPLY ALCOHOL OR<br />

MARIJUANA TO YOUTH<br />

Both are illegal for youth under 21,<br />

even in your own home.<br />

Enabling underage drinking is<br />

dangerous, sends the wrong<br />

message, and is illegal.<br />

<br />

<br />

or giving alcohol to a minor.<br />

Allowing drinking in your home,<br />

even if you take away car keys, does<br />

not make underage drinking safe.<br />

One-third of underage drinking<br />

deaths involve auto crashes. The<br />

remaining two-thirds involve alcohol<br />

<br />

unintentional injuries.<br />

Underage drinking can lead to risky<br />

<br />

sexual assaults, and violence.<br />

the physical, social and emotional well-being<br />

of youths and adults with challenges - through<br />

interaction with horses. Their riding rings<br />

(indoor and outdoor) and stables are located<br />

in Marshfield.<br />

These hosted community suppers are supported<br />

and produced with CSSG volunteers.<br />

The group welcomes help from all interested<br />

persons to make this series possible along<br />

with our local hosts and donors. This month’s<br />

supper features beef stew and home-baked<br />

bread along with vegetable soup. For further<br />
