Course Content

This is a classroom-based, workshop-style, learning experience.

Using Christmas fabric, you will learn how to cut out and sew fabric pieces to create your own unique reusable gift bags.

Tutor demonstration, advice, guidance and practical support will be given throughout the session.

You will need

Please bring with you:

  • 0.5m metre of Christmas fabric for the outer of the bag
  • 0.5m of plain fabric for the lining
  • 1m of ribbon for the handles

Assessment Method

This is a RARPA based course, assessment is carried out though building of a portfolio and taking part within tasks matched to the individual’s personal targets.

RARPA stands for Recognising and Recording Progress and Achievement which is the process of assessment for non-accredited learning. It is a means of validating the outcomes of programmes which do not result in qualifications. RARPA is a five-stage process which measures and records learners’ progress, achievements and attendance.

Where can it lead?

You could progress on to further crafting, sewing and pottery/ceramics courses.
