Creating an outfit takes a lot of steps. Here are the general steps to make an outfit, including ten steps. First is step 1: Sketch the design. I do a variety of sketches to describe what I want in my garment. Step 1 takes me two hours to finish. Second, step 2 is to drape the design. In this step, I can drape one side of the outfit, decide on the number of sides draped to avoid waste of fabric. I spend 50 minutes finishing step 2. Next is step 3: Pattern the design. Step 3 takes me 35 minutes to finish. This is where things can be quite tricky, expensive, and need creativity. After that, step 4: Cut muslin outfit. The paper patterns are taken and cut it out on a muslin. It takes me 20 minutes to finish this step. Next, the fifth step is to sew the first muslin sample; correct and fit it. The fitting can be carried out on a real model or the form to make corrections. Step 5 takes me one hour to finish. The sixth step deals with correcting my pattern. To begin with, patterns are taken and fixed. I spend 20 minutes finishing this step. After fixing my corrections in the pattern, I am ready for step seven: sew/ do another muslin. I can sew as many samples as possible to make sure everything is right. Step 7 takes me 30 minutes to finish. After that, step 8: Cut outfit in the real fabric. The garment is cut in the actual fabric. It takes me 25 minutes to finish. Step 9 is to sew the outfit. I can sew the final garment yourself or give it to my seamstress. It takes me one and a half hours to finish. Finally is step 10: Complete the outfit. My garment is completed and I can see how it is. I spend 15 minutes finishing this step. The step that takes me the most time to finish is step 1 because it needs so much creativity and precalculation. Step 3 is the most challenging for you because it takes care, creativity, and agility. These are all steps to make an outfit.

Writing task 7: Write a paragraph (100-120 words) about a kind of fabric which you often use.

# data[].attributes.body
Daily wear is used with a variety of fabrics, such as felt fabric, synthetic fabric, silk fabric, .., in which one fabric I often use is cotton. The kinds of clothes I often sew from cotton include T-shirts, shirts, dresses,... Cotton fabric has many advantages. Its cost is quite low compared to other fabrics, durable, and dries quickly after washing. The cotton fabric absorbs moisture and sweat, reduces heat, and brings comfort to the wearer. However, the cotton fabric also has a few disadvantages. The fabric is easy to rot when it comes to environmental factors. Besides, the fabric has a slightly stiff exterior. The cotton fabric wrinkles easily, so the ironing process is quite laborious before wearing. This fabric is very popular in Vietnam. Because it so comfortable, cheap and common.

# data[].attributes.body
To create an outfit is not only needs a good craftsman but also needs a good sewing machine. Below are instructions for operating the sewing machine. First, workers can power the sewing machine by inserting the plug into a wall outlet and setting the main power switch to “O”. Next, workers need to wind thread into the bobbin. After finished, cut the thread, slide the bobbin winder shaft to the left and remove the bobbin. Workers can switch the lever on the back of the machine or use a knee lifter to raise or drop the presser foot. Workers can adjust the position of the needle by turning the hand wheel counterclockwise to raise the hand up or down. To use the sewing machine safely, you must read the instruction manual for the sewing machine carefully. At the same time, remember to avoid the needle entering the hand and not to raise the presser foot when sewing. The bobbin must be wound properly before sewing. Finally, you need to turn off the device when not in use.

# data[].attributes.body
Some common sewing machine problems are needle broken, the fabric is broken needle, bobbin runs out of thread, The cloth may not stay still and the thread is not straight

In case 1: Broken needle. Workers can recognize the problem while sewing with their eyes. The needle is bent, broken on impact, or sewing on too thick material. To fix the problems, workers need to replace the broken needle.

In case 2: Bobbin runs out of thread. In this case, workers can see the bottom of the fabric side has no thread. To fix it, they can wind thread into the bobbin.

In case 3: The cloth may not stay still and the thread is not straight. Workers can see the sewing machine may not have installed the presser foot or installed but the presser foot has not been lowered. To fix the problem, workers need to lower the presser foot after the fabric has been placed in the sewing position.

Workers must always take good care of the sewing machine,  carefully check the sewing machine's parts before and after use to keep sewing machines in good condition.

Tomorrow, I will be attending the birthday party of a celebrity I have just met. This is my first time attending a birthday party in a very formal place, so I choose a dress that makes me feel most confident. I chose a soft white silhouette dress with a lace collar, short sleeves, and calf length.  The dress impressed me with its high waist and a soft flowing silhouette. The dress makes my waist look slimmer. In addition, the sleeves and chest are sewn with lace fabric, which makes me very attractive. The dress has a simple but very attractive design, both helping to flatter my figure and concealing my large thighs, so it is a perfect choice for me at the party. I really like it.

I'm planning to sew a shirt in the near future. To be able to sew a shirt, I need key measurements such as neckline, bustline, waistline, hipline, biceps, and shoulder length. First, to measure the necklace we need to use a measuring tape around the neck. The second is bustline, I measure around the fullest part of the bust on top of the nipple. Next, I measure the smallest part of the body to get the waistline, which will normally be above the navel, between the bust and the hips. I measure the hipline by wrapping a tape measure around the widest part of my butt. Finally, I used a tape measure to measure the shoulder length from the top of one shoulder to the top of the other shoulder. The most difficult measurement for me is the waistline because I need to determine the exact position of the waist so that when sewing the shirt is balanced and beautiful. These are all the ways to measure and where to measure for a shirt.

Dear Mr. Henry,

I am the receptionist, Thuy Huyen, who is working under your guidance in your hotel. I am writing a letter regarding my requirement of a training course to learn the ‘French’ language for the improvement in job performance. Allow me to describe my necessity for the knowledge of this non-native language.

From the last month, the numbers of customers from Canada, and ‘France’, are gradually increasing day by day in our restaurant. Also, they do not have good skills in the English language and my level of this foreign language is not appropriate for better communication with them. So, I need to brush up on my expertise in this overseas way of communication. Thus, this is the reason tuition is required for me in this subject.

Finally, I would like to join the classes at the weekend because it will not put any kind of impact on my work and the duties will be performed with the same efficiency as now. Therefore, it would be greatly appreciated by me if you could arrange this education at end of the week. Moreover, there are many tutors available in the market for this curriculum.

I am looking forward to your reply.

Yours faithfully,
Thuy Huyen.
