Day 2: picking materials and planning a process

Day one jewelry design at Kolding design school. Learning how to saw.

1600-1620 Chopines

The beginning of haute couture 

It's a new year with new projects and id like to be better at posting. So here is my "new" workspace. The extra room is very satisfying.

Volunteering as costume designer for a scifi futuristic film. Here's a look at the set in progress. I'm extremely impressed by every minute of it. The fog machines set of the fire alarm last night: evacuation and visit from 2 fire trucks. Everything is exciting

I made this shirt To test out some new skills -fading double pocket with a layer of vinyl It's very difficult to sew with the vinyl but for a first try I think it went well.

I hated doing spec sheets in school but I started doing them because it's a nice way to show people the layout of what goes into making clothes. And actually I'm kind of loving it now. Everything is more fun when you aren't forced to do it:)

Some photos from the process. I made this shirt for my boyfriends birthday and wanted it to be a surprise so I took measurements and shape from one of his favorite shirts and drafted a pattern from there. I made a mockup for fit (he did see this one before the birthday)
