Some adjustments needed to be done when it came to the size of the garment. as well as the yoke of the vest was altered for the final look. Overall it went smoothly.  Back View front view WEEK 10  By the following week, I stated to sew my pants for the look1.  For the look 1, I also did my fly front opening along with box pleates. By the end of the week, I completed the pants for look one.  Embroidery and beading done on the yoke of the garment.  the picture above shows how I planned to make my manipulation look like.  whilst working on my pants for look 1, I started the manipulation on my look 1 top. The techniques that I chose to use was applique embroidery, sequins and beading. To make the manipulation even more interesting, I decided to use fabric marker to achieve a gradient effect.  WEEK 11 The above picture shows when i was sewing the fly front opnenin...

 WEEK 5  Fabric manipulation and sampling. during this week, I proceeded with the fabric manipulation and sampling where I was still exploring different ways of needlework. One technique that I tried during week 5 was fabric slashing.  In order to include the aspect of needlework, I worked on some beadings onto the manipulation. 

 WEEK 1 On the first week of the semester we were introduced to the new topic of the semester's project title. The topic was about needlework where we were told to make a research before deciding on what we are going to work on for the rest of the semester.  Mind-mapping   (from your subject matter to your imagination-what are you planning to do/ experiment especially your fabric manipulation relevance towards your subject matter inspiration). On your subject matter, elaborate your research by giving some factual points. My first mind-map consisted of  a research on what type of garment I wanted to focus on during this specific semester. As well as an idea on the subject matter that I was planning to work on.  While doing a research about the type of needle craft that I wanted to focus on, I decided to proceed with the decision of doing embroidery applique and beadings as well as sequins.
