Mixed wool, peppermint park suiting 5 pound a meter
This week was lisas turn to choose the material. She chose Mixed wool. This was by far the worst material i have come across in my 19 years of living. The material fell apart in my hand. It was really fragile and was more suitible to be used for items such as scarfs.
I did try my best and attempt it but i failed to make this work. I was finding that the material was fraying and wasting. Due to the fact that i only brought 1 meter as this was a skirt i was having second thoughts, if i could do anything differently i would next time by at least 2- 3 meters. I was left with minimal material and therefor the only thing left for me to do was mix it with a heavier stronger material. I chose to use leathertte. This was because i really liked the texture and look of it. Black leatherret always make a garment look a bit more pricey.
I made a waist jacket and a pencil skirt because i wanted the model to have a complete outfit.
So far i think this has been my most suxxesful piece, i am really learning a lot and enjoying the step by step process, this module is really developing my skills.
