Official Answer:
You are correct, two years ago we allowed the use of a sewing machine as the sewing machine was common to all teams and was very usable by a student. Remember - students do all the work with only 1 exception - the use of a power saw to cut a sheet of plywood which the students measured and marked.
A sewing machine should be on the list of approved tools. You the student may use it, an adult cannot sew for you.
