The great thing about this "Badge in a Bag" is you can do it without or without a sewing machine. The only thing you'll need is scissors and a pencil... a sewing machine is optional!

If you are a Junior Girl Scout leader and would like to use this kit to complete your Sew Simple Junior Badge here is our suggestion for fulfilling the requirements. Of course, it is not meant to infringe upon your own interpretation of the badge or the requirements printed in the badge book. Since you will need your own fabric scissors, this "Badge in a Bag" is probably best done in stations or centers.
