Class-Fashion Design

If you can’t insert a picture then explain which tool you’ll be using. Make sure to make a price for each tool that would work best for sewing, cutting, measuring, fabric marking, drafting and software. Follow the instructions to better understand the assignment.

Step 1: Choose Your Tools

Now that you have learned about many of the basic kinds of equipment you will need, it is time to go shopping (virtually, anyway). Go online and find five to seven important items that you will need. Think about which tools would work best for you for these tasks:

• Sewing

• Cutting

• Measuring

• Fabric marking

• Drafting

• Software: creating, revising, retrieving, and verifying information

Make sure that you have a price for each item. If you are going to drop some serious cash on a high-quality pair of dressmaking shears or a cutting machine, be prepared to explain why you absolutely must have the pricey one.

Step 2: Create an Inventory

When you have selected your items, create an inventory complete with images. You may do this electronically in a word processing document, or you may print out images on paper. Next to the image, write the price, what you will do with the tool, and why you selected this model.

Step 3: Explain Care and Maintenance

When you have finished your inventory, write a paragraph explaining how you will store, maintain, and care for your equipment and the clothing you make. You want to be able to have it accessible, but it is important to show that you know how to protect your investment by making sure that your materials last as long as possible and that you use them safely. If your inventory includes a sewing machine, make sure your paragraph explains how to clean and oil the machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions. (If you don’t have the manufacturer’s instructions, you can most likely find them in a PDF document online.)
