Today was an upside down topsy turvy day that 2 out of the 4 people in my group even know about. Our plan was that the bag that we have been working on in class was supposed to sewn by Tanielle. That did not work out. So we went to our second plan. We decided that my aunty would sew it. Because of scheduling, we only started sewing tonight. After trying to sew one of the yoga mat paddings to the fabric, I realized that the yoga mat was a bad idea for padding. We would need an industrialized sewing machine because it is WAY too much padding to sew. With time ticking down, Christina, Aunty Alysa, and Dad designed a new laptop bag. We made a laptop bag using quilt and velcro. I sewed it myself. Im really frustrated today because all the work that we did just went down the drain. I made a bag and it is a good sleeve. It is definitely lighter then our current lap top bag but we need to add more cushioning. Tomorrow comes a new day and hopefully less stress :)
Don't worry too much about the setbacks. Be sure to document dome of the issues that you've had and try to be persistent and try to work through them. Your team can do it!
ReplyDeleteThatʻs too bad about all the problems you guys are facing. I guess that comes with tackling a problem as complicated as laptops. Hopefully everything will work out in the end though.
ReplyDeleteIt's okay that you weren't able to use the ideas your group had thought up- at least you were able to improvise and devise a new laptop "sleeve". I think it's great that it's less bulky than our current bag, keep up the progress!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness your sleeve is suuuper cute :))
ReplyDeleteEven though your ideas didn't work out, you guys are doing a great job at bouncing back!
You look like you're well on your way to SUCCESS :D
Keep your heads up and get it done :).
