My video

Here is my video of me making my wearable arts costume. 



My new costume

We were sorting out our cards and we figured out a way to solve the problem! I thought to put the cards on my costume. I picked the cards that had some missing and we couldn't use any more. 


I was sorting out the pillowcases so I could make my costume. It was an old one that mummy didn't want anymore. 


I lay my dress on the pillowcase. I drew around it. It looked exactly the same on the pillow case. It was like a pattern. 


I cut my costume. Mummy helped me because it was a little bit hard to cut the pillowcase because we couldn't find the right scissors. 


I tried it on to see if it fitted me. 


I used the sewing machine to make my costume. I sewed the hem on the bottom first. I learnt to use a sewing machine at kindy. 


I laid it out on the floor how I wanted it to look. 


I sewed on the cards. It was hard. Mummy helped me. Mummy wanted to make the sewing machine go fast but I didn't like it because it was too noisy. I had to sew the cards on the line. It took ages. 


I have nearly finished. I just need to make a hat and a necklace for my costume. 

My costume is for my imaginary friend "little miss".

Oh no...I can't go!


This is a angry face. I am angry because I  have to think of something else to make for wearable arts. Because my Dad chucked all my plastic in the bin. I was going to use is for my costume. I can't use it anymore. He didn't know it was my wearable arts costume. He thought it was for rubbish.

Planning my wearable arts costume

My name is Phoebe. I am creating a wearable arts costume.  I am making an outer space costume. 

Today I drew a picture of what it will be like. It is going to be made of plastic. I am going to use the sewing machine to sew my costume. I have used a sewing machine at kindy. 

got the plastic from my mums friend Nicole. It was rubbish from her work. I am going to reuse it to make my costume.
