Due to COVID last spring semester was cut off and ending in not the most promising way. We did however construct some pieces and this was beneficial to start my sewing progression. We ended up using University of Fashion and watching tons and tons of videos for assignments. Our final assignment was a paper on how the pandemic will change the fashion industry as a whole.
FINAL PAPER
EXTRA CREDIT
For extra credit we were told to create some masks and see what we could come up with! This was a great way to pass quarantine and I ended up giving them to a lot of my loved ones.
