2012 Fashion Camp_Felting
These past five days of Fashion Camp flew by so quickly! The students were fun to work with and they were fearless: willing to try all the activities presented to them. They created story boards, made jewelry, used Adobe Illustrator, drew fashion figures, printed on fabric, used industrial sewing machines to create a variety of projects. Today – the last day of camp- they will be making cell phone cases in felting. It has been a world wind of projects and activities but a lot of fun.
This Fashion camp has been very helpful in figuring out what I would like to do in the future. Going into this camp it was very unclear to me, and although it was fun, I know this is not where my heart belongs. I encourage people to do it because it is such a great experience with a bunch of great people, and the instructors are fabulous and are there to help you. I will never forget this experience and plan to use the skills I used here in the future. I am 15 going into grade 11 and found this program very useful. Please consider this, it is a big commitment, but definitely worth it.
I loved making my own print! It was so much fun! I really enjoyed the last day too when we got to finish our bags we made with our own fabric. Thanks Deanna and Corinne!
So this course made my lack of ability to sew apparent, and I really didn”t mind, because the instructors were very understanding and willing to help, and I made some great friends who also lent their support. I also learned how to create a mood board, and stamps, and my own fabric (which looks awesome, I might add) and how to draw fashion figures, which is a skill I know will help me later. Thanks so much to everyone who made this possible! I had a LOT of fun!
This has been really fun and a great experience! Lots of thanks to Corinne Richardson and Deanna Devitt, and the jewelry and print-making teachers! My favorite part had to be making our fabrics and sewing our bag was fun too! Fashion and art combined – my ultimate dream!!! It was great! Thank you!
