HEADER!!!!! At last.

Right Jess. Shaun sent me the pictures, and these are the ones of both of us. He didn't send me the one with our backs to the camera though :(
Any who I was thinking, we could have a play with these, like fonts and shizz for rusty mittens, post them back umm, choose y'know :)
also, I hate the last one. Feel free the draw all over that :) LOL

Photo shoot idea.


I was having a mooch on photographer Jason Christophers website, and I found these images, which I think is quite beaut. It got me thinking. I know we discussed maybe having a photo shoot for our collection in that derelict building, but what if we weren't so obvious and went for something that was quite a contrast, beautiful and free. Ahem, maybe even good ole Sutton Park. Omg I actually know the best little forest bit in there that would be amazing to take pictures in. Anyway it was just an idea:). But yeah what do you think? Am I thinking too far ahead again?

Hello Emily dear,

Emily, I was just watching the whiteboard development filming, and realised that for a A/W collection, we have quite short skirts and shorts and boobies showing and things, I mean some tie in really well, but maybe we should keep a look out for tights or long socks or something? Have a look and let me know what your thoughts are, because lots of bare thighs in an a/w collection might look a little odd?

Get back to me you boob. xx

Emily working hard.

The topstitch Queen! x

And to think...

On tuesday, we only had those white board drawings.

Now, on FRIDAY, we already have a jumper dress, a bodice, half a jumper, and the starts of a skirt. oh and a tank top :)




YAY!!!

Whiteboard Development.

Line up designs.

More designs, from Monday. I haven't obviously got yours in here yet, and haven't got the AMAZING piece because, well, it's kind of confusing and we need to sample it major. But yeah, thought I'd share. x


Have I got the colours right?

Tonight, I'm going to try and sew the latex I have patchwork style, so I can get some more done tomorrow and leave it over the weekend for me to pick up ready next week.
Also, we said about doing some accessories, I haven't got much here, but I'll do some experimenting.

Tomorrow,
Finish patterns RTW 4
Finish grey chiffon skirt
Finish jersey long sleeved top
Finish bodice ( except lining! )


If not, we can take it home over the weekend :)

Woo! Feeling good!

Because I actually planned for once.

I did a plan for this week, which i think is very doable and got me really excited and this is what it is :)



Tuesday -
Pattern cut jumper dress and bodice (DONE!! :))

Wednesday -
Shop for materials
Make jumper dress (complete)
Start bodice
Finish of RTW patterns 1 + 4

Thursday -
Finish off RTW patterns for 1 +4 if not completed on wednesday
Start pattern cutting our own designs
Textiles - Sort out print, maybe even print 2 metres of fabric for skirt and bodice

Friday -
Start on RTW 1+4, mainly the long skirt, jersey top and long sleeve thing
If the print is done then finish the bodice and start on shorter skirt



OVER THE WEEKEND - Finish off garments and update sketchbook

By the end of the week ( or by next tuesday) we should have AT LEAST -
A rough idea of print
1 jumper dress
1 long chiffon skirt
1 long sleeve thing
1 jersey tank top


IF WE'RE LUCKY!! -
A printed skirt and bodice too..
:)





What do you think? Do you reckon that's doable cos I think it is :)

x


orr we can do tomorrow your way. that could work :)

I made a shopping list too lol. i have £44 roughly for stuff for tomorrow:)

The best day.

Right Emily, I'm just charging my camera so I can upload the images of the whiteboard and things. I'm going to try and design the whole collection tonight in neat. 
I think if we can get the cardigan and maybe the RTW 1 almost done tomorrow, it would be amazing!! Because if you think about it, the cardigan is very basic, but the bodice cant be done until the print is, so if I make the skirt, and the top if I have time, THATS SERIOUS PROGRESS. 
Although, I cant stay behind tomorrow, sorry. Do you think thats doable? 

More posts soon x
