Pattern Making and Garment Making (DST63504)

Week 3

It's week 3 and class was packed with learning. Ms. Melina gave us instructions on how to construct the sleeve block. It was a bit difficult to grasp at first. with all the information dump but I think I have grasped the concept.

               

Ms. Melina also showed us some ways to practice sewing, 
which she told to do as home work,
as well as practice sewing different types of seams and different types of hand sewing. I did make a few mistakes while doing these exercises, especially on the continuous curve sewing.



By the time I got to do the seams I was a bit familiar with the machine and it wasn't too hard like the sewing practice patterns. I did three types of seams which were Plain open seam, Mock French Seam and Felt felled seam I did these from a home machine which I borrowed from my aunt.
