Took things slow today at Garment Construction Class. After the pressure and frustration trying of to keep up last week (Different Kinds of Seams, I decided to take things slow and be more assertive in getting the teacher's attention. Hey, it worked!
Of course, it didn't come without glitches. As usual, the sewing machine I chose had problems with it. I thought it was just my inability to control the speed of the foot pedal but after M checked it twice and didn't get the problem resolved, I decided to ditch it and choose another one. Unfortunately, the 4 vacant ones all had problems with them so I asked to use the automatic one, the one I used the first time.
Should have done it earlier since that sewing machine and I just worked wonderfully. Could've saved me all those times of sewing and resewing all those seams.
We did the back of a skirt today including darts and zipper. Was sooo time consuming not to mention laborious. But it was all good. The importance of measuring the centimeters and keeping those measurments were being reinforced. Hopefully, I do well next week when we do the full skirt.
On other subjects, I need to finish up my Fashion Design assignment. Whew!
