Now we have Halie Yarborough modeling her army camo PJ pants made from a polar fleece fabric, this is her way of honoring the soldiers overseas. She was inspired to choose this fabric because three of her family members have served our country. She learned through this project that sewing in a straight line can be very difficult. Besides FCCLA, Halie is also in DI. She plans to take FACS classes throughout the rest of high school. Amazing job, Halie!

Now here comes Kellyn Fluke in her zebra print cotton pajama pants. She chose this fabric because it's fun and comfortable. She says the hardest part about making them was when you messed up. Then you had to seem rip them all apart and re-sew them together. But this was her first sewing project, and even though she had a few mistakes she still had fun. Terrific job, Kellyn!

Amanda Koens and Katie LaMee were the MCs for the first half of the show.
