PONCHO PRODUCT
This is my process of cutting and pinning all of the material I needed. There were quite a few pieces of material that needed to be cut. (Below are a few pictures of how I had to cut and place it on the material).
The next step I did was making sure all the pieces were cut. I also started to begin actually sewing the pieces together. Firstly I sewed the pocket onto the front of the poncho. Next, I started sewing the other two front parts onto the main piece I had already finished (as shown below).
The next thing I did was do the exact same thing I did for the front except it was for the back of the poncho and you don't need a pocket at the back either unless you really wanted too.
Then, I did the hood. I have no photos of the process it took but I can tell you that it had to be accurate when it came to doing the hem because you would be able to see it on the outside. (As in the stitching)
And this is my finished product but it's inside out. It took a lot of time and effort but in the end, I was happy and proud of the outcome. It took a while but it was totally worth it. I had made a lot of mistakes in the process of making my poncho. Each time I made a mistake it would just look that much better the second time I did it. So, now I'm actually done!!
Above are a couple of photos of the poncho in the process of being sewed.
Awesome work Nelly. I love that you realized you learnt from your mistakes and in fact you were better off the second time round.
ReplyDeleteWell done on the construction. You were able to work independently from your pattern asking for help when needed. I think also it helped having Ella next door doing the same thing as you were able to bounce ideas off each other.
You should be proud of your efforts. Watching you develop not only your pattern (poncho) but your stitching skills over the semester has been impressive.
A quiet yet determined effort.
I hope you are keeping warm now you have a poncho to throw on! :)
