I'm not sure I'm excited or anything, but I have finished school with Styling and Couture marks of 92% for the corset, 90% for the ballgown, and 90% for my jacket (which I will post pictures of eventually). My average millinery mark was roughly 75%, dragged down by my appalling "workbooks" which were made worse looking by the effort others put in. Two a4 sheets with hand scrawled notes do not compare to work books full of progress/how to photos and actually design theories. Bah. I made a hat first and then threw words on a page and still got 75%.
Now I can clean my living room of bits thread and pins. Maybe even put my sewing machine in it's case for awhile. Go out and do things! What did I do before school? It's been two years, I'm kind of hazy about it.....
Also, I bought myself a 'class is over so I'll probably make things for me at some point' present - an Singer 5 thread overlocker. For $50. Yay!
