Competency Profile 1

On our very first lesson of "The Teaching of Clothing and Textiles" we were tasked to do a competency profile. This is for our teacher to judge how competent we are in sewing. Thus we are assigned to sew some basic seams as well as three different shapes.

They are:

• Square
• Triangle 
• Circle

Sewing the square and triangle was pretty manageable. The challenging part is when we had to sew a circle. I guess this is where we all unpick our fabric several times to perfect it. 

Although during the 3 years in Temasek Polytechnic, we had several sewing modules like Lifestyle Sewing 1, Lifestyle Sewing 2 and Decorative Construction we still faced some difficulties sewing a perfect round circle.

However, we take face the challenges and tasks given to us positively!

Below are photographs of our very first competency profile.
