:: Textile lesson ::

First lesson on textile and clothing. The last time i used a sewing machine was probably 11 or 12 years back when i was taking home economics!

Bernina 830

Was being introduced to this NEW EXPENSIVE sewing machine which was the new addition to the ones in NIE. Dont you think it looks like photocopier or printer? haha. If anyone of you still have those big sewing machine from donkey years back (like the one my mum has), you will be very impressed with this! or probably our mums would be =D

This machine is really coooooool!! We were all blown away when the person was explaining the functions. It's so interesting! Everything is so automatic! The list is not exhaustive so those of you who are interested, do refer to the link below:

Note: I am not promoting this brand just sharing =)

My good friend for the next few months

This is the one that will company me through the course. Dr Mok explained to us the functions and differences between the machines. We were also being informed about the assignments......last but not least Competency profile for textile and clothing.

My PGDE mates doing the threading =)

We learnt about threading which is to put the thread through all the loops before you can use. Sewing machine is such a stranger to the few of us but i believe practice makes perfect and we can overcome it!
Til then, see ya!
