My invention is made to help keep your sleeves clean! Do you ever go to eat your lunch and your sleeves gets dirty? It’s very frustrating, I know how it feels, my invention is made to cover your sleeve and save you from a mess.

I picked this problem because before when I was in kindergarten and first grade my sleeves got really messy. I liked to wear white long sleeves shirts most of the time, and I got them really messy by the sleeves, because of food, ketchup, etc. And even when I tried to pull up my sleeves they would keep falling down and get even messier

I picked the solution I did because i thought my solution would be best, I also picked my solution because of the criteria, (comfortable and can’t get in the way of eating) my solution would not get in the way and when I tried my invention on it felt comfortable!

-Needle and thread to keep the fabric together
-fabric to cover the sleeve
-elastic so it can stretch to the width of your fist, also so it can come on and off

My first step was to find materials. During my first attempt I couldn’t find elastic so I used a hair tie, I noticed as I was sewing that the hair tie wouldn’t stretch anymore, the solution did not work ❌

Next me and mom looked to see if we could find elastic, I sewed little slips into the fabric and threaded through the elastic. I saw that the elastic worked and stretched! 👍🏻

Lastly to keep the project together and make it so it went around the rist I had to sew the ends together carefully so it wouldn’t come undone.

On step four I mentioned how I used a hair tie and tried to use that elastic. I do think though maybe the hair tie would have worked? But, because the hair tie is small and you need a long elastic to make the project stretch but not be to small it may not have worked.🤔
