October 23, week 8

Due: Decision!
1. Will you be making pants or a top for the final project? If making pants, you will need to find/purchase a quality commercial pattern or use the one that is available (but you may not love it). For students making a top, please arrange Pinterest tops images in order of interest/excitement.

2. Students cut the piece of fabric for Sleeveless Shell/Tunic to be washed or dyed and identify it with a hand sewing initial. Students need to have developed patterns for Sleeveless Shell/Tunic to make this decision.
