FMP Mid Crit

Being half way through FMP I find it helpful to be able to get other opinions from other students about how I can develop my work. Even from different pathways so that I can look at how they are doing their work and then take some ideas to be able to help me and present my work. When receiving my book back I saw that one of the things that I needed to develop further was problem solving in my book. To achieve this I need to put more processes in my book, that I have found hard and put more fails in my book to show how I have solve this problem. I feel that most of my problem solving will come when I start to make my toiles and figuring out how to structure my garments together. I could develop these ideas further by picturing my process when making testings and now coming up to making my toiles.  A good example is my flower pattern, using knit in my first book putting in my fails and then showing the final outcome to demonstrate how I have overcome this problem, where I drew a template to help show which needle needs a different colour for me to create this pattern. Another development that I found from my crit from students and from my tutor, was to put more notes in my book to clearly show my ideas and what my work means to my topic of my nan. By making small notes just makes it easier for people that haven’t seen my work before to understand my journey and process from my research to my final garment of my topic of my nan.
