3rd Year Internship

After being partnered up with my 3rd year student, Sorcha, I met up with her and she showed me mood boards and drawings of her collections.

On 24/04/16 I came in the studio for a couple of hours to help Sorcha with her patterns for her toilles. I traced out drafts of her patterns adding seam allowances and cut them out. I also cut out pattern pieces for a Bra-let top she was toiling out of calico.


11/04/16 - 15/04/16

This week I have been helping my 3rd year out with organising her patterns and tracing off her original drafts into final ones and adding seam allowances.

I also traced out lines on her fabric with  a tracing wheel so that it can be quilted. 

I have been cutting out all her pattern pieces out of various fabrics such as lining material and latex. I have learned to cut out pattern pieces more precisely by using a tracing wheel.  I have also learned techniques on how to pattern cut more precisely. 

I have also ran errands such as running into town for fabrics and samples.
