Chapter 60

A few days later, Xiao Shuwei almost forgot to learn about fashion pattern making.

In the self-study class on Friday afternoon, Mr. Z suddenly sent a message.

Mr. Z: Xiao Shuwei, I have learned the basics of clothing pattern making; you can ask me anytime if you have any questions.

Xiao Shuwei:!

Mr. Z: Is there any question? ;
Xiao Shuwei: Are you actually learning that?
Mr. Z: Yes; and I also met a few friends on that forum who were also learning clothing pattern making by themselves, and they gave me a lot of help.

Mr. Z: Oh, by the way, I also participated in the novice clothing pattern-making competition in the forum and won the third prize;; this is the work I participated in the competition, a dress made according to the design drawing provided in the forum.

Afterwards, Mr. Z sent Xiao Shuwei an attachment, downloaded it, and it turned out to be a picture of a clothing pattern.

Xiao Shuwei took a look, and didn't expect Mr. Z's pictures to be very decent, at least they look professional in the eyes of laymen.The picture is very detailed, with professional symbols and lines carefully marking the size, which is similar to several paper patterns that Xiao Shuwei downloaded from the Internet before, but it is different from the paper patterns obtained in the game.The paper patterns provided in the game also mark the stitches and sewing steps of hand-sewing, which is more suitable for novices.

Xiao Shuwei: It seems a bit powerful.

Mr. Z: I just started learning it~ I still need more practice;

Xiao Shuwei sent Mr. Z a few simple design drawings she had drawn on draft paper before.

Xiao Shuwei: These are enough for you to practice~
Mr. Z: Enough 2333
It seems that he has learned a new symbol to express a smiley face.

Xiao Shuwei: Well, come on!

Mr. Z: Thank you 2333
During evening self-study, Mr. Z sent Xiao Shuwei the pattern of a set of skirts.

Mr. Z: This is the paper pattern I drew after consulting the big touch in the forum; I hope you are satisfied.

This suit imitates the design of the skirt, which she designed casually a few days ago. The upper body is an antique cross-neck design, and the lower body is a mid-length skirt of floral cloth.The waist of the skirt is designed with a drawstring, which can be worn at the waist as a mid-waist dress, or it can be tied at the chest to imitate the appearance of a high-waist skirt.

Xiao Shuwei has always liked Hanfu. Although she doesn't know much about it, she likes it very much every time she sees the beautiful costumes in ancient TV dramas.There are still many pictures of Hanfu stored in her mobile phone.

The paper pattern sent by Mr. Z looks much taller than her original draft style design, and many details have been improved.

After reading Mr. Z's pattern, Xiao Shuwei couldn't help itching.

On the way home at night, she went to a copy shop to print out the pattern.After returning home, she took out the fabric that had been hidden under the bed for a long time, and prepared to make this skirt according to the paper pattern.

As soon as she opened the paper box of the fabric, Xiao Shuwei was stunned.

The finished aprons and clothes in the carton are lying neatly in the box.

Xiao Shuwei has never been able to fold clothes, and the folded clothes will never be so neat, so these clothes must have been touched before.

And the only person in the family who can rummage through her things and fold clothes can only be Yun Jinghua.

Xiao Shuwei picked up the top apron, unfolded it, and she was surprised to find something extra on the apron—an embroidered kitten on its pocket.

She flipped through the other two skirts, one of which had improved shoulder straps, and the other had two small flowers embroidered on the front of the sundress.

Xiao Shuwei knew who did it at a glance, because the only person in the family who can embroider is Yun Jinghua.

Xiao Shuwei took the clothes and went to the kitchen, wanting to ask her mother.

Yun Jinghua is busy making noodles, because she will make dumplings tonight.

She glanced at the clothes in Xiao Shuwei's hands, and said casually: "Oh, I embroidered them. I saw that the two clothes you made were not bad, so I embroidered some patterns on them, just for fun."

Xiao Shuwei was a little surprised, she struggled for a while, and said: "... So you don't object to me doing this?"

After hearing this, Yun Jinghua wiped the flour on her hands, looked back at Xiao Shuwei, frowned slightly and said, "If you don't object, you don't object. Doing this is better than facing the computer every day."

Xiao Shuwei was a little surprised, she had always believed that Yun Jinghua would definitely not agree with her to do these things, but now it seems that she was worrying too much.

"However, if you do too much of these tasks, your eyes will be tired. After finishing your homework, go out for a walk and look at the flowers and trees." Yun Jinghua began to teach again.

Xiao Shuwei agreed with a "hmm" and said with a smile, "Mom, don't talk about that, when will you teach me embroidery!"

Yun Jinghua said helplessly: "What's so easy to learn about embroidery!"

Xiao Shuwei said: "Embroidery is very interesting. Otherwise, why do so many people like to play cross-stitch, ribbon embroidery and so on. And now hand-embroidered clothes are much more expensive than ordinary clothes."

Yun Jinghua didn't object, but she didn't immediately agree: "Well, let's wait until later."

Xiao Shuwei was satisfied with her mother's words.

Then she went back to her bedroom and began to draw outlines on the fabric.

Halfway through the painting, she found that there was not enough fabric.

...what a mistake.

Because of her lack of experience, she thought that the remaining fabric must be enough, but after actually measuring it, she found that it was not enough.

She checked the information on the textile market near her home online, and soon found the address of a market.

Then she took the pocket money just issued this month and went to the market.

She strolled around the textile market for a while, and found that there were a wide variety of fabrics.She looked at it for a long time, but she didn't know which one to buy.

She struggled for a long time, and wanted to find a store to ask which kind of fabric should be used for the skirt.But she was not used to talking to strangers, so she was too embarrassed to open her mouth, so she wandered around in front of several stalls, still unable to make up her mind.

The female owner of one of the stalls greeted her warmly and asked her what she wanted to buy.

Xiao Shuwei told the shopkeeper about the clothes she was going to make.

The female shopkeeper was very enthusiastic. She said: "If I want to make skirts, I will recommend this kind of cotton fabric from foreign trade orders. You can feel it, it is very soft, breathable and comfortable to wear."

She smiled again: "Girl, you don't look very old. There are many girls your age who come to us to buy fabrics. Now more and more girls like to make their own clothes. I just sold ten clothes this morning. I gave a cloth like a ruler to a little girl, and she said it was used by some drama club in school to make clothes..."
