week 9 27/11/08

Today we finished our shorts; this is the third garment we have made and I was so happy with the level of my improvement I have felt masses of satisfaction during my journey in construction and feel my hard work has paid off! We now only have one more item of clothing to make and it is a shirt, I am really excited about this and love the fact I am no longer scared about coming into a construction lesson! HAPPY! :D
We also made the pattern for the shirt today and I stayed behind to finish it so I am not behind tomorrow, some friends stay to finish to and helped me when I was struggling, I have made great friendships on my course!
Today there was a presentation on ‘Red or Dead’ by Wayne Andrew Hemingway but I felt I would get too behind in pattern cutting if I went to watch it so I decided to give it a miss, I felt I missed out but know I can watch it on the internet so its not so bad!
Sarah Charles asked the group if anyone would be interested in dressing for London Fashion Week and my hand was straight in the air, this would be a fantastic experience and I do not want to miss it, it would be hard work but I know I would love it, it would be a massive adrenaline rush! It would also be great experience as I am interested in styling and promotion.
