So last Friday in fashion we had a very busy day. We started off cutting fabric to work on muslin samples. We cut out three types of collars and put together two of them on mini shirts. We have to design 10 for homework, along with a collar quiz and cutting more fabric, as well as making a slash pocket that we designed ourselves. The fabric that we are cutting is for two baby shirts. One of the shirts gets to be donated to the children's hospital! I think donating them is a great way to mix charity with class work.
In visual thinking we took a tour of the history of fashion design! To do so, we looked through huge books that showed us all types of silhouettes. We have to take some of these shapes and consider them for our collection that we are drawing out. I can't wait until the project is done, only because I'm excited to see what everyone comes up with!
And one last thing, here is a cute website for handmade gifts!
