The last leg of my first year of college.

I've just finished my Graded unit last week
notes are all done now (more or less)
I found it was good as long as I kept taking notes, and photograhs of the progress
here is some below:
this is the unlined jacket I done before it was all put together I overlocked the garment but I think i'm going to make another jacket but binding the edges instead for a better finish


I really like how it looks inside out (I decided to go with copying part of the front pattern for my faces, and I was a bit unsure how it was going to sit at first but i really like it would work I think if bindinded both ways, I think I could make a really funky jacket with this.

Last but not least, the final garment, I used an blind stitcher to finish the sleeves and hem and I found this alot neater than blind stitching by hand  
(below is the blind stitching and the finished jacket)

New pattern cutting table and making an awesome wee creative space.

Finally got a wee table for pattern cutting down the west end in Glasgow
(£15 from The Salvation Army Store)
 a really good bargain!

After trapping myself in the living room, me and my partner in crime, took it apart and put it back together.
it also slides out to extend the table by maybe about roughly 40 cm.


and it just seems to fit in perfectly to the room


My wee creative space for working has really come together
(the mannequin is just off side from this picture)


all the happy creative vibes
