Range Planning

Finally finished the Range Planning project. I didn't do so well during the presentation. Rambled and just plain did garbage speech. A one hour sleep isn't a good idea, better just stay awake.

I think my development book is good though. It's organized. Not sure if it's very appealing but I made so that I could look back and be proud of what I've done. Not so sure about my Window Display. The others in class really had this imaginative creations. Mine was just plain boring.

Anyway, here's the photo.



Now, on to the next project - Ready-to-Wear. Sigh.

It was a Good Day Today

1. My thread didn't break.
2. I only had to unpick once.
3. My overlocking skill is improving.
4. I didn't have a headache from either the cold (weather) or the heat (from the weird heating system.
5. I had a 90+ mark on my pants assessment (although my self-assessment was way below that. I know. I'm too critical of my self.).
6. A stranger sitting beside me on the tram gave me, yep gave me, her pen because she saw that I was using my finger (writing in the air) to answer the jumbled words in the newspaper puzzle section.

Te-dum-te-dum

I just finished the flat trades of my fifteen chosen designs. I kinda prefer free hand trade sketching but the french curves and ruler does help in making my flats look neat. I suppose it will take constant practice, not to mention years, for me to do a reasonable free hand flats.

Tomorrow, we'll be doing the costing for our chosen garments. Can't wait.

Started sewing bodices yesterday. The darts were a bit hard to sew. I'm trying to curve my sewing before I reach the dart point but it just ends up straight. See. When I want to sew straight, it curves. When I want to add a bit of curve, it sews straight.

But I finished early which was good.

Suppose to be doing my 5th scale patterns but my head is just tired from the flat trade sketching I've done. I had to redo some of the flats since it just didn't look good. My pens blotted, and I've used different types of pens at that. Will just have to do it tomorrow.
