Toiles and Tribulations.........:(

OMG how many toiles can a gal do??
Well, i have only done one, but its not exactly right so I must made the whole thing AGAIN?!
But I promise not to cock it up on the real thing, I swear!


Ah well... needs must after all :/


On a good note, I've handed in my Lectra folder and am still improving on Illustrator.


Oh and did I mention.....I'm hoping to book my second placement with..oh...only TESCO!!!! Fingers crossed! I'm going to ask Jo to give my CV and gander - all about who you know eh ;)

Keep you updated bloggers, promise!

Illustrator Shmillistrator!

Pah! Who needs Jamie's help anyway??

Well, actually, me the majority of the time, but anyway, I'm posting to say that I am vastly improving!!!!

Today I have created two of my accessories and my final design for my outfitting project.

So really I've just come on her to boast about my cool new skills!

Peace!

Jersey Royal <3

Result!

I am very happy to announce to everyone that will listen that i have just finished my jersey t-shirt and I am very proud at my outcome!I have been sticking to a very strict time plan at the moment. I've tried to push with my Lectra and jersey project, whilst planning my toile for CDF.


And I can report, so far so good!I struggled with the Kansia Machine (dun dun duuuuuun) and I had to unpick but beauty equals pain and all that!!
However, i feel that it wouldn't be right if my new post didn't have one low point/attack of paranoia.


The rib detailing on my neckline is towards the right seam instead f the left. I am ridiculously annoyed about this and I'm hoping that it won't muck up my whole t-shirt. But if it has to be altered....c'est la vie! :(


A picture is on its way, promise!





>>>>In other news, a successful trip to London (Berwick St)meant that the fabric sourcing for my 'cool new trainers dress' is done and dusted. I even managed to get through the whole day in the big smoke without an argument with someone on the tube! Score!
