Arts and Crafts Core Competency Self-Assessment

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.
