Sewing Journeyman (week 5) March 20

We will be working on projects in class again this week.

As long as all goes according to plan this time, 😉 we will have a sewing workshop day on Tuesday, March 18 from 2-4pm at Melissa’s house. (Note the slightly later time.) Text me and let me know if you can make it!

Homework

  1. Work at least 1 hour (I’d recommend more if you have a big project) on your current project. If you have finished a project or haven’t started one, go back to the first blog post (week 1) and pick one, search one out on your own, or text Melissa ((385)-230-1145) with your idea and she can help you figure out how to get started.
  2. This time, since we will be working on projects in class, spend part of your homework time making sure you have a very defined goal of what step you will work on in class, and bring to class the supplies you need to do the steps you are planning on. Also, make sure you know how to do the step you want to do. Melissa, Tasha, and Annabelle will of course be there to help, but you will be able to use your time much better if you research how to do what you need to do next before you come to class. Reach out in advance if you aren’t sure how to figure it out, and we can point you in the right direction.
  3. Text Melissa and Annabelle ((385)230-1145) a progress update and if you need any help planning your class time work, by Wednesday evening at 6pm at latest (but noon Wednesday or earlier would be even better). You are welcome to text, call, video call as you go along also, if reassurance, double checking, help, or support in any way is needed.
  4. Next month, for our last class, we will have a little fashion show/show and tell of the things you have sewn this year, so keep that in mind if there are things you want to finish up or make before then. Marcie will be doing a little photo shoot for us to capture some pics for the yearbook/posterity. If you have taken on a big project that won’t be done before then, just keep working on it and you can show your progress so far! Some “seamster/seamstress-in-action” photos would be super cool as well, and we won’t be disappearing at the end of the school year, so we can continue to support you to completion!
