Reflection on week beginning 22/03/2010

This week I have been practicing making a fly. I have done this many times before but can never seem to remember how to do it. This week I wrote down in my diary a step by step guide to producing a professional looking fly. I drew diagrams so that I could remember how to do it in future.
I also managed to make up my skirt in calico and cut out my fabric for my skirt. I managed to make some of my patchwork fabric up for my dress however I am fining it difficult and a very long process as my design includes lots of very small pieces. I have also realized I will have to create a lining for my dress as the seams are very ugly and very visible.
I have been altering my CV to make it a creative CV that will catch the attention of a future employer. I think it still needs a little work but I have improved it a lot by simplifying it and adding my own imagery that i have made in illustrator.
I have also been working on my technical file for Studio Practice and Production. I have been filling in costing sheets, spec sheets and continuing in making my flats for my final range. This has given me a better understanding of what would be required of me in a real life working situation and has helped me confirm that this is what i would like to do in the future as i find it really interesting.
I think this week has been a fairly productive week as i have also finished knitting one of my jumpers for my final mini collection. I am very proud of the result and am hopeful about how the rest of my knitwear will turn out.
