Eeeek delays delays! :(

This week I have found making the shirt quite challenging. As this process is new to me I have felt very anxious about making sure everything is neat and precise. The front is finally finished and I have put together the shoulder and side seams, hemmed the edges and started on the plackets for the sleeves. Due to being really delayed with Battle for the Winds my time management has been a struggle at times, ensuring everything is getting done in time for the end of term. The delay with making the shirt hasn't helped either due to the pattern problems we have experienced , which also has made it even more pressurised. I was really worried about this so I spoke to Dexter who assured me not to worry and that I can finish the shirt after the Easter holidays in my late night study sessions. I feel so much better after speaking to him about this! Being a costume practitioner I have discovered the importance of planning time and how so many other factors can affect the progress of making a costume. If I am ever worried again about the time allowance I have for a unit or a costume I will always speak to others about from now on.
