Textiles 11: Week 3, Mini Pillow Case

 

  1. Brief Overview of what you did this week, including photo documentation of process.

This week,  we worked on multiple things, such as measurements and our first real machine project, The Mini Pillow Case. I began the pillow case which was pretty straight forward. I also learned to use the seam gauge for the first time, which was quite helpful. Second, we did noted our measurements for garments and other projects in the future.

2. Your biggest struggle of the week.

This week, my biggest struggle was staying on task and being on top of my assignments. This was a busy week for my friends and I because we had to miss class for senior sail. When I got back, I prioritized finishing my pillowcase and staying on task. I made sure to manage my time, but it was a challenge to catch up.

3. Your biggest success of the week

This week, I got much more comfortable with my machine, which was actually my goal from last week. I was able to complete my project efficiently and with ease.

4. Goal for next week.

My goal for next week is to a more challenging project and create a tote bag that I will use in my day to day life. I think the tote bag will be a nice challenge for me and seems like the perfect next step in my textile journey!
