Technical and Further Education

 As 2012 whistles up the fast lane, I find myself caught up in the whirlwind and neglecting my blog.
 Quite a different year to last year ...... I'm teaching at school one day per week ......
 and teaching at home one day and one night per week .......
 ..... and for the other three days .......
 I've started a Certificate IV in Applied Fashion Design at Hunter TAFE.
 AND I'M LOVING IT!!!!!!
 Drawing, Block Construction, Computers, Sewing & Cutting, Pattern Modifications ......
 I'm learning how things are done for the Fashion Industry.
 So, I must apologise for ignoring your blogs and/or not leaving comments, and I suspect my blogging time will also be reduced ......
Not sure if I'll have much time for my own sewing, otherwise you can expect more photos of samples!!!!  - done on lovely super efficient industrial machines ........ loving it!!!!   insert big cheesy grin here

    Thanks again! The 3 days are very full and long days - which is good really, so yeah, busy but very fulfilling, it takes a while to get used to such a full week, as compared to last year where I cruised along - great freedom but no real focus!!

    Ooo - fantastic - so jealous I'm just doing a online course from Susan Khaljie on sewing a couture dress and am absolutely hooked on the process. Also off to do a commercial pattern fitting course next month. Looking forward to hearing about things when you have time.

    What a great way to divide up the week, half working and the other half studying. Sounds ideal.
