My first month as a tailoring apprentice (continuation)

I started a story of how I decided to go learn how to sew, this is a continuation. Here's👇 a link to the first part Click here https://read.cash/@Sammieobong/my-1st-month-experience-as-a-tailoringfashion-designer-apprentice-its-story-time-giveaway-12a6d1ad So I stopped at where I said, I made lots of mistakes while sewing my first short. I'll be listing the few mistakes I made 😂😂. But before that, my material combination were quite off, but it didn't matter because I was just trying out something for the first time so I didn't really consider my material combination.

The picture above shows when I was about to join the zipper flap to the short, I got that one right tho, and I felt proud 😄

So in the picture above, I've joined the flap and I was done with adding the front and the back, remaining to join my waist band and my belt loops 😞. That's where the problem begun. Anyways I was able to finish up MY FIRST SEWED SHORT AS AN APPRENTICE. Actually it took me almost 4 days to complete it😂😂, unlike now that I can finish a short within hours. It wasn't perfect tho, but I was definitely proud of it🙂🙂. Here's a picture of the completed work👇

That's the front 👆 This is the back👇

So finally, I had to try it out. So I wore the finished work🙂🙂. That's where I discovered all the mistakes I made 🥺

So my mistakes were I made short's waist was smaller than my actual waist😂😂 I missed 1 belt loop, instead of 6, I fixed 5 The length of the short was too short for Me My lines were not really straight while sewing And finally I used 2 different unrelated materials 😂😂 Anyways, I learnt from those mistakes, and now I'm better, I've sewn other shorts and trousers so far, and I won't say I'm Perfect, but I'm definitely better than I was few weeks ago. If you're doing anything in life, keep on practicing, definitely, you'll never better with time. Stay safe, and be happy I love you ❤️❤️
