Only one more to go; the box top, and i'm so relieved! 

To start the process of this box top I traced around the toile that I created on the stand as both the toile and top I was beginning to create were the same shape. I then drew around the top half of the already created toile and cut in to sections adding 1CM SA to each pattern piece.

Once the toile had been completed and I was happy with the fit I cut out in my final fabric.

I found it difficult to sew the PU leather and PVC together as they both stuck to each other and the machine bed. I overcome this problem by seeking advice from the technician, who suggest I used a silicone spray on the machine bed. This helped dramatically and was able to manufacture neatly.

I plan to finish my garment with bias binding once the garment has been fitted during fittings week.

FINALLY COMPLETE! 
My collection is complete!
