Week 6 Review

This week has been hectic yet productive. I managed to get back on track with getting my toile completely finished and ready for the fitting in plenty of time. The good thing about this costume is that there aren't that many seams to sew together as yet so getting it together took no time at all really. Working alongside Kelly this week has been a big learning curve. We've had to make sure that both costumes are in proportion with one another and that they are exactly the same cut. Seeing as Chris has a fuller figure I made sure that I allowed extra so that hopefully the only adjustments that will need to be made during the fitting are the odd bits of 'taking in'. I've also had quite a lot of contact with Chris this week which has been helpful. The odd minor yet vital information that I have needed is now all logged in black and white and so hopefully there won't be too many queries during the fitting on Tuesday. Origianlly I planned to fit Chris myself with no assistance at his house on Monday evening, however I later agreed with Graham that it would be best to have him assist me with it at the studio in case of any issues occuring. Over the past couple of days I managed to collect some more relevant research to show to Chris and I'm now fully prepared for Tueday's fitting session.
