I name this project “Black Peony”. Because the material and fabric choosing, the design and the badness that I put on this dress are the reason that I pick the name “Black Peony”. From this project I learned a lot about pattern changing, pattern making, and 3-D clipping experience. The zipper part used to be the hardest part to me, but at end of the project I feel zipper is not hard to me anymore. I can sew faster than before. After this project I really learn a lot of things from it. I can feel myself that a huge difference than before.

Fabric choosing I realize is very important. Different pattern should use different fabric. At this time, the fabric that I choose for he top of my dress is too hard and is not soft and flat enough to fit the body shape. Additionally, when you change the pattern imagine the final looks in your head before you officially change the pattern. I learned a lot from this project. For example, draw lines to touch the darts point and cut it half could cancel out the darts. Think about sew which part first would make easy for yourself, because sometime if the order gets wrong you would need to ripped the seam.
