Each project begins with planning. Children think about their design, choose colours and stitches, and decide the steps needed to complete their work. This helps them understand the importance of planning and organisation. By breaking a project into smaller steps, children learn how to manage their time and stay focused until the task is finished.

Embroidery also helps children develop patience and concentration. Working with needle and thread requires care and attention, and children quickly learn that rushing often leads to mistakes. The club encourages pupils to slow down, focus on their work, and enjoy steady progress. Many children find embroidery relaxing, and it provides a peaceful break from busy school routines. 

                                                               

Mistakes are treated as a normal and valuable part of learning. Threads may tangle or stitches may not look as expected, but children are supported to try again. They learn that mistakes are not failures, but opportunities to improve. This helps build resilience and confidence, as children see that effort and practice lead to success.

Creativity plays a key role in the Embroidery Club. They are encouraged to add their own ideas and personal touches. Each project is unique, giving children a strong sense of pride in their finished work.

Overall, the Embroidery Club supports children’s creativity, patience, focus, and confidence. By planning projects, learning from mistakes, and completing their work, children gain skills that are useful both in school and in everyday life. We are delighted to see how much the children enjoy the club and the progress they continue to make.
