Garment construction project
Four techniques I have learned during the constructions of this projects is learned how to sew darts, the different types of zippers, learn how to sew directional stitching, and how to stay stitch. All of these techniques are important for when creating garments, for example, dresses, skirts, collars, jackets, etc. To be more specific about the sewing techniques, darts are sewn into garments, to add volume, structures, and to contour the shape into your body. Darts are important because they add shape into your body, and you want that shape to make you look more fitted and neat. Stay stitching is used on collars, skirts, dresses, so they wont stretch through out time and will stay into it size as well. It's important to stay stitch, because you don't want your clothing to stretch and become loose. The joys of creating a garment is very hard to feel because throughout the process all you do is stress. But when your done with creating that clothing you feel accomplished, proud, and excited. Personally I have never sewn in my life before. so when I'm done with any type of sewing project I feel proud because,I have never though I could sew before. One of the frustrations while creating this project is that the directions are very unclear from your pattern. So, you get confused, a lot and many don't know what to do. Another frustration is that there isn't enough machine to work with, so you have to wait and share. Also, you certainly get mad when your sewing machine isn't cooperating, with you. Overall. I've come to a realization that it isn't easy creating a garment. And that cheap clothing lasts shorter than more expensive clothing. So it's better to spend a bit more on higher end clothing
