This picture you can see is my final idea and is the main focus of this web page, you will get to see the making of this idea each week and how each lesson has been going for me, plus what I will be trying to complete the following week.]]> 2018-06-10 09:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/266457087 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/266466785 In order to know how my design would work out and what I have to do to finish it to a high quality standard, I had to create a sample teddy bear. These pictures are put in order, step by step, of what I had to do to create this bear.]]> 2018-06-10 13:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/266466785 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/266466797 Today I have been working on what fabrics I will be using for my project and completing one of the techniques that I will be using as different patches on my idea. The first 2 photos shows you that I had to decide what fabrics went well together and which didn't, this is the type of thought process behind my design which are most important. The other photos are the process of making the technique which I am doing. The name of the technique is chenille.]]> 2018-06-10 13:00:53 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/266466797 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/268334099 This week I have started to assemble my bear. I have sewn its feet and arms together plus put its back and front pieces together of both the face and the body. Everything worked out well but next time I will be careful on the arms as I had to recreate one of them; I put the patch on his hand the wrong way round 😂]]> 2018-06-24 11:43:50 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/268334099 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/268334338 This week I sewed all the pieces of my bear together nd started stuffing it, plus completed another technique that is going on the stomach of my bear. This technique is called patchwork and what I had to do was get different patches on different materials and layer them on the bigger piece of material, then sew down in strips across the material. Everything worked out the way I wanted it to. ]]> 2018-06-24 11:50:55 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/268334338 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269464406 This week I finished stuffing my bear and sewed up all his sides so that he was completed. Im my design the bear was holding some bunting but because of how long I had left to finish my project I decided to make a heart that had BTP on it, this was easier to finish for my deadline. All I have left to do are the eyes and bow, then I am finished!!]]> 2018-07-05 10:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269464406 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269553612 Today I finished!!! All I had left to do was finish sewing on the eyes with buttons and then figure out any last details. I wanted to add a bow, so I made this one out of a thin piece of material but it didnt look right so I made another one which was a lot thicker and looked way better. My project has now finished and I have completed it before the deadline, yay!!]]> 2018-07-06 10:22:54 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269553612 holliehobnob1 https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269553879 What do you think?]]> 2018-07-06 10:28:02 UTC https://padlet.com/holliehobnob1/speob57n1jv0/wish/269553879
