Textiles Core Competency Self-Assessment

This is a 100% handmade skirt I have created in textiles class and at home. ( I still have to finish up some embelishments on it)

I feel that I have shared Personal and Social skills as I included my old crochet skills with my new hand sewing skills to create something that I really like. I have learnt how to take the time to stitch by hand as well as learn how to cut out my own design on fabric. This was a huge stretch for me as I had to accept myself to make mistakes and I also learnt how to have more patience with myself while in the learning process. I do not think I would do anything different as I am very proud of my results with this project. I would love to continue to push myself by making my crazy ideas come to life like this outfit. I also would love to just go for new ideas and skills without hesitation so to achieve this I will try to practice my sewing journey more and learn from my mistakes instead of seeing them as a bad thing.

Artifacts:

Up above is a crochet shirt I designed and made. I am most proud of this assignment because it is very different and unique. I think that this assignment made me use a lot of thinking skills because I had to first come up with a plan of what I want to make. Then I had to do a few other steps before making the actual project and last I got to make the project. I feel that the part that took the most thinking skills was the tie dying part. The tie dying part was the hardest because their were not many instructions on how to do that since it isn’t very common. So I think that experimenting on how to tie dye the wool shirt I made used the most thinking skills.

Explanation:

During this project I used more thinking skills by generating new ideas. An example of when I generated new ideas was when I was trying to come up with a unique crochet shirt design. Some other ways of how I used creative thinking was when I got inspired by other peoples ideas and turned their ideas into other ideas of my own. I also used Pinterest to generate some more inspiration.
