HURRAH, ONE SMALL SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I FINALLY CAME UP WITH ILLUSTRATION STYLE. I WILL SCAN SOOOOOOOOON!

I GAVE THE MODEL A WEDGEEEEE


POOR BUBBA, SHE ISNT GETTING PAID ENOUGH TO WEAR A PAINFULLY ILL-FITTING SWIMSUIT.

OMG CAD EXAM TOMORROW.


okay so i have studied for cad exam slash hope i will be okay slash really dont like exams.

anyway i really have to get my final swimsuit underway i have cut out fabric pinned and tacked a couple of bits and really need to get a move on


sooo i better put up some toile images....
here is what it looked like.. IT DIDNT FIT HER. I USED STUPID SPOTLIGHT ONE WAY STRETCH FABRIC FOR LINING. I AM A RETARD. BUT LUCKILY GILLIAN SAID IT WOULD FIT FINE WITH RIGHT LINING. THANK GOD.
so reflecting upon my toile
1. small lines of binding look much better stretched over body than lying flat, although still got worry about where they all meet in either middle side of swimsuit, they gotta be right. i am going to have placing binding strips after 10 mm on every panel and hopefully if i measure properly it will be a sucess
2. going to bind everything thing legs wrists, neck (turned out well!) binding machine is not that mean!, twin needler is hell, thank god binding will look best on mine but have to work out new measurements for placing binding pieces at bottoms of swimsuit as i really stuffed that part of it up, but binding will work
3. gillian said my zipper was way too long, it really was but she said i put it in beautifully, hooraaah that why tacking is the most amazing thing i have ever discovered, takes forever but holds everything in place.
4.the bottom part the crotch is too wide need to cut that down, is that because my pattern is wrong? not sure have to work on that
5. really need to make top chest cut-out way more effective, so aim going to change pattern to achieve that, gillian thought this good idea hurrraaaah
ohhhhhhh my god i have to do all that measuring/pinning/tacking/pinning lining thing again on all panels for my final swimsuit.kill me. why did i do this swimsuit. why.
