Huiswerk

Still upside-down from the trip to Köln, the drive back, being tired and having a slow Monday morning. But no time for all that: school was calling me and there were two people waiting for me to drive them there.

To my dismay, I had forgotten to finish the homework assignment (reverskraag maken) and had to finish it hastily fifteen minutes before we had to go. I sewed the buttons on before class, and handed it in, semi-satisfied.
But not only did my drafted patterns I had sent by snail mail last week not arrive at all, I also didn't finish drafting the coat pattern we had to practise nor did I adjust the sleeve from the week before that.

I'm looking at some hard work for this week:
- Sew another one of those bound buttonholes, using a slightly different technique this time
- Copy the pattern pieces of that coat we drafted in class and make fabric estimates
- Draft my skirt patterns on full-size
- Make the six- or eight-paneled skirt ready for hemming
- Make the straight skirt ready for fitting
- Do the coat pattern after all and mail it to the teacher so she can check my work

Lots to do, and only a week to do it in.
