What a beautiful week

So our second week of sewing has passed, and my outfit is almost done, just a bit more of hand sewing and my outfit will be finished.  Seeing as I have only 4 more weeks to go, all my effort is going to go into work, so that i can be proud of what I have achieved in my three years at Fedisa.  Im almost a true graduate, I cant wait to tell someone I have an actual degree.  And then overseas for me.  So one more outfit to go, a week of visuals and then my couture gown! I really cant wait to start my next outfit.  My time here at Fedisa has really been amazing, and the best thing I could ever have done.
I thought this quote by Coco Chanel sums me up perfectly, and maybe it does for you to.  Have an amazing week.

6th Garment

So we into a new week of sewing.  And starting our 6th garment, the one I am making is inspired by the cobblestone walkway that is part of my theme.  It is a off pink knit, over batting, and I have top stitched over to create a block effect like cobble stones.  The top is going to contrast the skirt as it is going to be made of chiffon and be a lot lighter and airy.  Seeing as we already in August we have only 2 more months to go, and I will have my degree, I'm so excited already! and then I'm off to work on the yachts in America, to just travel and see the world, and then I will come home, and be ready for the real world.  So by next week this time, I will let you know how my garment went.  And just something to inspire you for the week.

Storyboard week! We had to design an outfit for a couple.  So my inspiration was Cinderella and her prince.  The outfits I designed had a very royal theme to it, but with an Asian twist.  I used a lot of cream, caramel and paisley print.  Im trying a whole new style of drawing, where I'm drawing my figures the same style the Walt Disney artists draw, well as I said I'm trying to.  Well Im really busy, so wish me luck!

So we working on our 5th garment now.  Ive made a long plunge neckline dress, with a beaded waistline.  The back is completely open and I am going to put strings of pearls draped onto the back.  For art next week, I have to create a cookbook for Fedisa, I have to have models dressed in food, so I am going to go with a Mediterranean theme, so my model is going to have a dress of pasta on, and the dish on her head.  I have a lot of work ahead of me, but only three more months and I will be officially done.  Would I do it again, most defiantly! 


Here's a picture for my inspiration of my range...
