I recently completed a transformative 5-month design journey centered around the theme of "Bloom." This project granted us the freedom to interpret and express the theme in our unique ways. Throughout the process, I honed essential skills such as time management, organization, and project planning, while also refining my pattern drafting and garment construction abilities. Witnessing my first original design evolve from an initial concept to a finished piece was incredibly rewarding and a testament to my growth as a designer.
