Kentucky 4-H believes that all youth should have opportunities for positive youth development in our four guiding concepts: mastery, belonging, independence, and generosity. The 4-H sewing project fosters mastery by learning to operate a sewing machine or serger, sew a straight seam and smooth curves, and construct casings; belonging by being part of a group; independence by learning skills that can be used throughout life; and generosity by sharing sewn items with others and helping others
