Design Tech
In this quarter, we were having 2 works which were creating an apron and potholder. According to my personal opinion, my best work was creating the apron. When making the apron, I was able to cut the pattern carefully and I was able to fold the side of the apron neatly. Then using the sewing machine, I was able to sew the folded part neatly, although some of the sewing were bit off the course, but I did it successfully. First, I a bit struggle when using sewing machine during the training, the sewing always go off course, but I keep learning and learning, and so that I improve my skill in sewing. I struggle when I need to set up the sewing machine. I kind of confuse when i need to insert the bobbins. When the bobbins run out of the string, I need to fill in again, and I kind a bit confused. I need some little help from teachers and friends. Then I need to insert the string from the start all the way to needle, and there are certain steps. We must not miss the steps because if we do, we will start from the beginning to insert the string back to the needle. The hardest part of the process in doing this is inserting the string to the needle. The hole in the needle is very small and that it requires a very skilled hand to insert it. Then, I also struggle in sewing the potholder. Every time I sew the side of the potholder,it always misses, so that one side of the potholder won’t join together with the other side of the potholder. Sometimes, when I sew the potholder, it also go off the course. It happens because the sewing machine sew to fast and that when there is a curve patter, it is very hard to turn the sewing machine. Because of the struggle all the students, the teacher gave us a chance that the potholder can be done by using hand sew. It is much easier using hand sew rather than hand sew. My research of potholder also good. I was able to give detailed explanation.
