Textiles - skirt part 1

So far in textiles we had different options to chose from there was a hoodie, skirt, pants and kilts. I Chose to do a skirt as I thought it would be the easiest for me. We first started off by drawing the Pattern on some paper then we had to cut out the pattern. We then chose our fabric I chose a pattern that has polka dots on it. I have cut out the fabric into the patterns I cut out earlier now it's time to start sewing.
