Shirt

Hear are some images of ,my shirt that i made in construction the shirt was difficult to make but i enjoyed the challenge. It is pin stripped there was an option of three colours red, purple or blue i choose to use the purple fabric. During the shirt making we learnt how to make the pattern for it but also different types of collars the stan collar and the convertible collar. We used the convertible collar for are shirts. Also this was the first thing we made with button wraps and learnt to make button holes. The thing that made this pleasant was that there was a verity of different things to learn in one outfit.

flat drawings

In ict i did some flat drawings, as a fashion designer they are a important part of my course, to do them by hand is a basic drawing flat used with pencil. On the computer illustrator is used, i used the same tools to create these drawing as i did my pack of cards symbols. i really enjoyed this lesson and learning how to create a flat drawing, i got the hang of it and and we be using it in my fruture designs projects.
Hear is a tshirt, my first falt drawing using illustrator.

ict

in my ict lesson, i got tort how to do flat drawings using illustrator.

we started off frist in the lesson by doing practice drawings to get us used to the program, we got show the basics, and to create symbols that are on a deck of cards.

A line Skirt

My A line skirt, it was made it out of White Cotton Drill. I found it easy to sew more than calico because it softer and easy to iron out creases. Still this far in to construction i was still finding it difficult, it wasn't the way we had to sew it that was easy to learn it was machines to get used to them. To make the pattern for the A line skirt was enjoyable, also in that lesson we got to learn and see the patterns for different kind of skirts like the circle skirt.

Shorts

My shorts, i was happy with these because at this point i was getting hang of the machines. The short as the same as the bodist was made out of calico, they are just basic shorts with a fly zip, and waist band and hems. I did a pattern of jean shorts which are much harder as they have pockets and yokes, so for extra work to put in my folder i did the pattern.

ruffles and folds

In my Design lesson i created a grament, which had some sort of element of ruffles and folds to go with the theme which was organic, i got told that it was just experimental so it was only pinned on a mankin. i really enjoy the activite and was please with my resaults.

For my reserach i look at dale chihuly, he is an american artist, he creates organic figures with glass. His work is very intresting and enjoyable to look at. the use of colour is amazing, there bright, Intense and Astonishing. I created a theme bored, and collected images of his work to help me with my design.

basic bodist

The first thing i made in construction with Pat and Jane are lectures, was a basic bodist. As it was first official thing iv made i found it very hard. the pattern cutting i really enjoy and find that easy to work out. The construction was difficult, to learn all the different seams and to put sleeves in i struggled with that.
