Creating My First Garment.

The first garment of many...
Finally I have created a garment, this garment was a skirt which firstly I had to make a block for. The block looked simple enough to make, until it came to it. I had to create the whole card block from scratch following instructions from my lecturer and a handout. I had a lot of help from Trish, she really does make life so much easier ( who knew there would be so much maths involved in fashion ). Then after I had created my skirt block I went on to cut out my pattern in fabric and manufacture my skirt. It took me two lessons, I really struggled with it, but with Trish helping me I got the job done and it wasn't as hard as I was making it for myself. So by the time my skirt was completed I was really pleased with the outcome.

This is my front and back skirt block.
