Thursday 19th November
Today we finished the skirt and started making some shorts. I learnt today that i start to fall behind with my work when it gets about half way through the day and i get tired, so now i know this i shall try and work out how to keep myself motivated for the whole day!
Friday 20th November
Today was a catchup day! It was good as i only had to catch up on some pattern cutting and re-do a little bit on my shorts to make them better and that was it. I really find the catch up days beneficial though because this course is so full on and fast paced it is really useful to get the lecturers help without getting more work to do onto of it!
Monday 23rd November
Today we had a flat drawing exercise, it made me realise i need to practice this exercise to make sure i can do it to a high standard, we also carried on with our projects.
Tuesday 24th November
Today is another catch up day! hoping to get a lot of work done have a lot of work from Sarah and need to practice more on illustrator.

Monday 16th November
Today we had a session that the seconds years never got to do and they wanted to do it after seeing our work :) it was fashion drawing and illustrations.....we all got into it and were having fun creating figures and adding clothes. I really noticed an improvement in my drawing by the end of the session which is amazzzzinnggg!! really happy :) Doesn't time fly when you are having fun!
Tuesday 17th November

WOW....that was a long hard day again packed with things to learn! today's pattern cutting session gave me ideas of features i could use in future for example the gathered sleeve, as i thought it was very eye-catching and could really enhance a basic outfit! another good lesson but a lot to do in our own time. eeeekk!!

Today we started our culture project.......researching cultures, i found this very interesting and eye opening because because although i am very aware there are many cultures that make up this world i have never taken the time to fully understand and appreciate them all individually. I really think this project will benefit me as someone entering the Fashion Industry. Cant wait to continue it.
Tuesday 10th November
Today we had I.T with Jamie drawing a trainer on Illustrator....this was challenging, i re-drew mine several times to realise i had done it wrong even on the last time! but i learnt how to fix the problem:) the drop in session with Sarah was very interesting and she gave us a lot of work to be getting on with that will make us think about the course we are on! we also get to have a debate soon! cant wait!
Wednesday 11th November
Illustrator with Steve, again we learnt more skills in Illustrator which will benefit me in the future! continued creating out logo and brand name etc.

Illustrator lessons- this was such a productive day! we started designing fashion Logos and i learnt some really cool new techniques, cant wait to finish mine....feels like illustrator is going to come in handy :)
Thursday 5th November
Construction... today we had to finish our bodice and also learn some hems! The bodices were soooo hard....the amount of times i had to unpick and redo things was unreal! but practise makes perfect ive been told :)
Friday 6th November
Construction/catch up day- yet again i spent all my time re-doing things on my bodice and after i finally finished that i re-did some more seams! arrrgh it was hard to stay calm with it, but i have now noticed one thing...thanks to the teachers i have now gained a need for everything to be perfection. I have been going through my work noticing my own mistakes and even re-doing things that i thought were not good enough that the teachers thought were....what are you doing to me! This is going to be good in the future though and this also reinforces the comment i have made before about the need for perfection on completing this course :)
