Ms. Costa showed the speaker how to properly measure and cut pattern pieces for a sewing project. The speaker then searched for fabric at home, finding an old gray sheet that their mom was getting rid of. It took 4 hours to iron, cut out, and plan which pattern pieces went together for the skirt being made from the sheet fabric. The goal for next week is to start sewing the pieces together to finish the skirt.

I was finally able to connect with Ms. Costa about the patterns.
She showed me how to follow
the steps and where to read what pattern parts I need to cut out. She also showed me how to properly measure so I know which pattern size to use. I then went home and looked around for what fabric I needed. She told me to use a fabric that has a lot, so I had to find something that was an article of clothing because it wouldn’t be enough. I then find an old sheet that my mom was going to get rid of. It’s a soft gray and perfect to make a skirt out of it. I ironed it, cut out all the pieces I need just to get started. This took a total of 4 hours to cut, iron and plan out which pieces go with what. I wasn’t able to sew anything together yet because I didn’t have enough time due to school, extracurricular activities and work. My goal next week is to start sewing pieces together and hopefully finish it.
