I’ve
just learned that the DC Fashion Incubator has delayed its pattern making
course from June 22nd to July 6th. Immediately I pay Bits
of Thread $30 for its pattern making tutorial because I am not waiting around
for the Incubator to learn as much as possible of the fashion industry. It’s
bad enough that the organization has delayed the textile class two weeks
because no one has any money during the middle of the month. I do and arrived
there last Saturday on the 18th. On top of this I receive an email
saying that the June 1st textile museum plan has been nixed and that
we’ll meet back at the classroom. Correction: The newbies will be meeting in
the classroom because I’ve already attended orientation. Besides I live near DuPont Circle and the
Textile Museum is right there. The museum has a free day and I will partake in
all of the demonstrations to learn more about clothing. In addition, the X2 bus
that I board will be full on the 1st of the month. While riding the bus back from the classroom
home, someone says that the homeless man smells like ‘cold piss’ which is one
for the record books! I refuse to subject myself to that tomfoolery until June
8th. Moreover, until all of the other classmates, I have the book
and will have at least ½ of it read by the eighth. Also I’ll get the textile
kit this week since I’ve budgeted for it.
I’m not waiting for non-paying people and the DC Fashion Incubator to
straighten themselves out, I am going for dolo! And it doesn’t stop with
purchasing the materials and attending the pattern making tutorial.
This Tuesday evening I will attend
the Nana clothing summer event at Bits of Thread. Until seeing this announcement in the DC
Scout newsletter, I didn’t know that Bits of Thread sewing fashion line
clothes. Well, why am I learning how to sew if Bits of Thread can do it for
me?! I draw my stuff and throw them a
couple of bucks and be done with it!
Next week I’ll attend a Georgetown fashion show accumulating more
exposure plus ask Bits of Thread more questions about its rates because it they’re
reasonable then I’ll have them sew my designs for 2014 Cleveland fashion week
because this is business. My clothes will be at the tenth annual fashion show
just you watch; and no one is getting in the way of that!
