Textiles, Week 10: Kids Shorts

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

This week, I started sewing my shorts together. At first, the video tutorial was a bit confusing, because it did not show which piece to sew the pocket onto. After messing up once, I sewed the 4 pockets to the front and backs of the shirt.

2 . Your biggest struggle of the week.

This week, it was pretty smooth sailing. If anything, I would say that following the tutorial was difficult as it moved very fast. Also, because I struggled last week with the pieces and their orientation, I had to cut a few extra pieces.

3. Your biggest success of the week

I’d say that this week I was very successful. I am proud of my pacing, and I am eager to begin my inquiry project. I sewed both pockets onto both legs. Now all I have to do is put it together next week, which might be hard. I am becoming much more confident in my abilities, which is making it easier to create work that I am proud of.

4. Goal for next week

Next week, I hope to finish my shorts so that I can start my inquiry project the next week. I believe that if I try really hard, I will be able to finish my shorts next week.
