Day 7 (May 15th)

 Today I finished cutting out all the fabric for the skirt of the dress. This took roughly an hour. Then I headed to school for tennis. After tennis, I came back home and started sewing. I sewed from 6pm-8pm and worked with the skirt. I plan to go out and get more fabric tomorrow, along with finishing sewing the skirt of the dress. If all goes well I should be able to work on the top of the dress Wednesday and Thursday!

Hours Today: 3

Total Hours: 23

I spent the first few days this week sewing the skirt of the dress together. By the time I was finished sewing the skirt, it was already Thursday and originally I was supposed to present my Public Demonstration on Friday. Friday morning I spent adding finishing touches and making a top to go with the skirt. By the time I was finished, it would have been time to head to school but we changed my demo to the next day.

Day 5 (May 12th)

 Today I spent most of the time cutting out the new patterns. After, I pinned most of them to the fabric and started to cut them out. Then around 2 I head to campus. I was in the theater helping from around 3:20 to 4:20pm. I ironed and steamed a few dresses for the show. My goal for this weekend is to get almost caught up. I want to try to start sewing by Saturday night because I will be at tennis during the day. I will have to probably do some work Sunday too. Hours today: 3.5 hours Hours total: 18 hours

Day 2 (May 9th) Finishing My Concentration

Image
 Today I slept in a little knowing I would be spending most of my hours at school. Around 11am I started by trying to figure out how I would cut up the second-hand dress to fit my patterns. I got to school around 1:15pm and talked with Heidi about the layout of my concentration and finalizing everything. I was in the Theater by 1:45pm folding costumes. I was in the theater til 4:45pm, I ended up cleaning some gears, helping with math, cutting a lot of the seams on my dress, and helping with putting some other things away. Then I headed to play some tennis! Today I spend a total of 4 hours working on many different things! My goal for tomorrow is the have all the seams cut and start cutting the fabric for the skirt of the dress! Hours today: 4 hours Hours total: 8 hours
