Week 6..!

Week 6
I made Shorts 
It was something new and have never done it before so i didn't know how they would come out.
The fabric was bought in shepherds Bush 
And was £3pounds a meter and bought 2meters.
I used about half a meter.
The fabric was a tweed

I got my inspiration from these shorts i liked the right hand side ones because they were simple and it was the first time i made shorts.

I liked them on and the shaped. I was shocked i made them to fit. which was good and was the first time i made something of my own fit me. I aslo put in darts to add more shape.

pressing it was hard because high heat was hard, the fabric wouldn't stay in place.

I put a waistband and that was quite easy to put in.

The only thing that went wrong was that the fabric frayed a lot, so for next time i would over lock fabric like this to make it neater and more presentable.

i hemmed the bottom of the shorts and that's when the thread kept pulling i unpicked a few times and it ruined the shorts.

next time i will try to get it right the first time.

The zip was easy to put and i inserted a invisible zip.
