Pattern Cutting and Construction...
In previous pattern cutting lessons I have gotten quite frustrated and therefore have not found it that enjoyable however last week we were making sleeves and different facings and I found it really interesting but LONG and HARD! I feel that I am getting better at pattern cutting and understanding it more clearly and how to use the pattern master. I nnow need to finish off the darts that I missed.
On friday we started to make our A-line skirts. In the morning we were laying out patterns down and cutting out the material using cotton drill which for some reason took us all morning. Then in the afternoon we looked at interfacings which I found really interesting as I hadn't looked at all the different ones before. We then finally began to sew the skirts together which I didnt realise would be so stressful I have now discovered I hate invisible zips and I never want to use one again. I really struggled with this and got far too stressed over it!! Not good.
