Day 10: Ironing, Sewing Crop Tops and Tags!!!!!







(12 p.m. - 5p.m.)
 Today was a really fun day, I started off the day doing what I always do, iron. I ironed all the pieces that were heat set and washed yesterday. After I ironed all the pieces it was time for Shannon to show me how to sew them together. I was so nervous when I started, Shannon gave me an scrap piece to practice on. When I sewed the first crop top, I felt like I had graduated again. Well maybe not that but I felt like I accomplished something. Then I found out that I had to sew in the care labels and the PLA label. Thats when I became nervous all over again. I absolutely hate using zigzag stitching, it never works for me. Either the zigzags are too wide or they are too far apart, they just don't like me. After a few failed try's it started to come together and look nice. Then after three crop tops down I was professional crop top maker, well not really but I had one crop top left. Shannon was so excited and couldn't believe I have sewn together four crop tops, she didn't even think I would have finished one top today. Shannon told me that she was really proud of me and that made me feel really good. After I finished them al we made price tags then I got to hang them on the rack. I can say that today was a good day.
