Enterprise lecture- fun as always i just need to keep my notes up to date and typed up...fashion show meeting with everyone did not go well. surprisingly people were quite cynical and it really was not needed considering that they hadn't gone out of there way to organise the meeting, gr.
3.15- well tom was in a perfectly foul mood today. we have begun choosing our titles for our essay today. i know pretty much what I'm going to write about. underwear fashion and feminism. i need to get it checked through with tom but i can start researching it now as the basics of fashion and feminism are fundamentally the same.
begin applied fashion trend cycle research and shop report research- i really cannot be bothered today.
we have a meeting with one of the mac geeks to go through and learn illustrator with on Friday, we have heard what the Thursday group said and apparently I'm going to fall asleep.

monday 1st feb
we had our enterprise presentation today - it went really well. i was happy with everything that our group did! we have a few things to sort out. a few more things we have to sort and finalise such as how expensive certain stuff will be abd double check prices but we are within our budget and its all going well!
well our hand in was supposed to be on wednesday..... but thanks to the third year and the first years and the second years all being scheduled in at the same time to use the sewing machines we managed to get an extra day. we cant be expected to use the college sewing machines only in the evenings seeing as most of the 1st years are in there anyway.
i handed everything in and im really happy with it. review tomorrow.
gemma 1-45. went really really well im so happy with it. i spent enough time doing everything i concentrated on the time limits looked at the mark scheme and yay! i got a first!

tailoring brief continued......monday 18th jan
mon-fabric shopping at dewsbury is always fun! i think i have got some really good fabircs for my project. we were there for hours.... ive got some purple suede, really good to work with as it doesnt shift about. it'll be quite hard to sew as it'll be thick but it'll work well. i also purchsed some really fine cotton which is perfct as im designing for spring summer, and the floral fabric i bought is quite thick, so it'll be able to give stuructre to what i make.
critical studies on a tuesday is always fun, im slowly getting into although it doesnt always make much sense and i just find myself argueing with tom.
we were speaking to gemma about our ppd portfolio, which i need to get done, but i dont understand why we would sort it out yet as our hand in is not for another couple of months and our work will (should) have improved by then so we would only be re-doing it anyway.
thursday and friday we were designing im really happy that i am up-to-date with this project i think its goignt o go really well. working a little through christmas really got me in the mood for it.

final design for my waistcoat..... im going to use the beige cotton at the back...the suede for the collar and the floral fabirc to do along side the collar and down the backmondY 25TH
Enterprise as alwasy is thrilling, it can be really good at times, and then sometimes its just boring and unnecesary some of the things we are told about just bore us. the swapsie daisy group is working really well, we always seem to get everything done we all put the work in. it just works well. and seeing as between the four of us we only live in 2 different places it makes life much simpler.
tuesday my tutorial with tom........ i really need to ge the long question done. i cannot for the life of me remeber what it is now, but its possibly the words weirdest text and its going to take me forever to turn into a small paragraph.
proposal form- for my essay needs to be done too. ahhhhh. i know i can get it done i plan on doing something underwear and fashion based.
thursady and friday was retro revival again- im really happy with this project. it couldnr be going better. i have been making my garment and during mon-wed i did the plans, and sorted everything out, so i just need to make my waistcoat. i think my technical file will be good. i think the technical file is going really well. i have managed to make a very simple step by step instruction manual wihch is 30% of my grade so hopefully i will do well.
these are scanned in images of my waistcoat... i havent had any modelled yet
back in leeds baby!
im not going to lie....its been a while and so much has happened.
so over the christmas period i did type up all of my enterprise notes and i have kept on top of them! i started typing up my critical studies notes and i now take my laptop into lesson so i dont have to re-type them. which saves me time and effort! :-)
im so glad i made a start on my christmas project doign the shop reports really made sure i was on time with everything and i did not fall behind.
this is what i did over christmas inbetween socialising!
research pages!

christmas time!
christmas- so much to do and 4 days to do it in, all my christmas shopping sort out and get stuff for my next project. write up the critical studies and enterprise notes into word. wgsn info. do everything else! sort our getting a placement. apart form that. enjoy christmas.
wednesday 16th hand in day
mission accomplished hand in done. work finished. I'm quite pleased once i bound it yesterday i found that i actually had more good stuff than i thought. as suggested by Angie taking out the crap makes it look far more professional. I'm really happy with what i have done and i hope i get a grade tomorrow that reflects that. then the briefing for the next project. its all been a bit hectic. we have had this brief with gemma and its called retro revival. we had it straight after our hand in. it looks quite interesting and i think i will be able to make a reasonably good start on it without seeing anyone over Christmas. more shop reports. joy! we have to to it for s/s 2011 so i need to get all of the information from WGSN otherwise my work and the beginning of my design work and ideas will be limited.
Thursday- meeting with sue about my work handed in yesterday I'm shocked at how quickly the turn around is for the next project. its a bit of an insult to the amount we have done when it only takes 5 minutes to look through everything and then they sort of give you a grade or at least have one in their mind for when they do mark it.
looking at my feedback sheet after my little chat with sue, she was really happy with the work i had done so I'm pleased, and i can now get on and think about the next project.

monday 14th-hand in 2 days
1.45 feedback about the enterprise thing with Angie, yes it went well. she said so herself. yep she only ticked a few boxes. great yes! we still need to check on a few things as we said and with our small budget of 3,000 i have managed to cut a few cuts since the meeting so we can add that back into our budget. good times. so tomorrow critical studies with tom, and then only one day left until hand in. argh. mind you its only ten credits. i havent got much left to do but as always on the night i will re-read the brief again and again and ill pick up on something i have missed.
