Yes, this week is the elusive “spring Break”. \u00a0In a fashion design students world, that really means nothing, but extra time to work on your projects. \u00a0This break I was called away by family to my home land. \u00a0OH NO!!! \u00a0That is like taking a week and two weekends out of the alloted time for this senior thesis. \u00a0Time being as precious as it is, my garments have come with me in small travel size pieces. \u00a0There is pialletting and hand sewing galore going on among the beautiful rocky mountains.<\/p>\n

Before the departure to the wilderness, \u00a0I managed to get a great deal done on dress# 3 skirt. \u00a0The affectionate “mop”! \u00a0This process is similar to the texture on dress#2. \u00a0However it is made by layers of organza and tulle pleated into 6″ long pieces. \u00a0Attached to a light layer of tulle and stabilized on paper via pin. \u00a0Then stitched down, paper torn away and voile instant skirt.<\/p>\n

Okay well I made that sound a lot easier then it really was. \u00a0There are 4 yards of each color of organza and tulle in the skirt. \u00a0Taking a step back at the product I decided that more tulle needs to be added to give the skirt a more “airy” lighter look. Lesson #4, panic has set in and if staying to work was possible, utilize the time.<\/p>\n

The clock is ticking and we are late for a very important date!<\/p>\n
