In today's lesson I continued on with sewing my leather skirt from the previous lesson and I had the help of my teacher, Mrs.Jennifer. Since I had already cut out the pattern pieces last lesson all I had to do this lesson was to sew it. Since I had already sewn a skirt before, this was no different and the pattern instructions were easy to read and understand.
I sewed the side lines of the skirt first and then moved on the waistband. For the waistband I had to take one long strip of wide leather and then place it over the waistband area and then sew it to give a firm support. I had no problems during this because it all involved me in making one straight stitch and one zig zag stitch for extra support. I then made an opening for my zipper and using a zipper foot, sewed in the zipper. I didn't have time to hem it so Mrs.Jennifer told me to hem at home.
