Actually planning shit

So one of my biggest flaws in a project is not planning what I am going to do in a organised way.

I'll just wing it and see where the project takes me and it will leave me with a finished project that still had 31% to be figured out.

Other wise known as being 1% OFF OF A FIRST!!!

Anyway.

Over summer I still want to design and make things because I really enjoy it and there is a great sense of journey and achievement during it.

So with one of my current projects that's racing around in my head is the Shorts project.
So I thought...

Lets make sure this project is organised and done to the best possible standard when it comes to product development and when stuff needs to be made by.

So here's what I'm going to do.

Finish designing the main look of the shorts by the 8th of June...
This means getting the main kinda feel for the shorts. The theme and a rough outline for where I want the project to go.
This will mean constantly going back to my mood board and making sure it still makes sense and links back to it.

 

Then I'm gong to start experimenting with how the construction of the shorts is going to work...

Sooo how the different panels are going to fit together, what seams I'm going to use and the different materials... 

This will almost blend with the toiling a few designs just to figure out how the sizing is working and where to add stretch and non stretch material. 

And when i feel like I have a toile that works and fits really well. then I'll make the final product. In July time. 

The reason why this might take a while is because I don't have easy access to a sewing machine, like I would need to use Chloe's (If I ask nicely) 

But I can find ways around it. 

From there I might do some initial development if I find anything about the shorts I don't like after a while of wearing them for various sports.
