- Brief Overview of what you did this week, including photo documentation of process.
This week, I finished my shirt by hemming the end and cutting my loose threads. Since I finished my shirt, I spent my time helping out my classmates with their collars and shirts, because it is the hardest part of the project in my opinion. Once they were on the right track, I chose my fabric for my shorts. I made sure to choose a fabric that was more suitable for the project, because the one I had used for my shirt was a bit too stretchy. Then I started to cut my fabric.
2 . Your biggest struggle of the week.
My biggest struggle was cutting my fabric. I must have read directions wrong because I did not fold the fabric so it wasn’t aligning. From there, I needed to build a puzzle in a sense, to find which pieces aligned and which pieces needed a counterpart. This took up the rest of my week.
3. Your biggest success of the week
My biggest success this week was finishing my shirt. I am very proud of my outcome and I think it turned into something that I would be happy to see a child wearing. In fact, if a couple of the proportions were a bit different, I would also enjoy wearing this shirt as a baby tee.
4. Goal for next week
My goal for next week is to begin sewing the pockets and get a good start. That way, I can be one step closer to starting my inquiry project.
