In this module, Textile and Fashion Industry Training Centre is excited to show learners the joy of making clothes through learning important apparel making techniques. This module focuses on making a full A-line skirt from scratch using one’s own taken body measurements.

The module will take a step-by-step approach to ensure that learners will understand each step in the process. Initially, learners will be introduced to fabric recommendations and basic sewing tools suitable for an A-line skirt. Learners will learn how to take their own measurements (or the measurements of others) before proceeding to create a basic block pattern of an A-line skirt. Using this pattern, learners will then be taught how to fully draft the skirt and ultimately sew it.

In this module, you will be learning:

1. Choosing the right fabric for an A-line Skirt.

2. Learn about the types and uses of various sewing tools.

3. How to take Body Measurements.
