For our class project you will use the spreadsheet provided and calculate your fabric needs for a batch of your choosing. Conversely, if you already have fabric stashed away, figure out what you can make from what you have. Perhaps this will motivate you to finally use it? ;)

Alternatively, if you don't want to calculate fabric needs you can use an existing pattern that you are comfortable with and modify the instructions, to make them more amenable to batch sewing. Just follow the class example as a guide! To present the project type in your new order of operations, and the original one too if you are so inclined. Please let me know if you have any questions in the class discussion section!

P.S. If you like these concepts and are ready to delve into the world of industrial sewing, I highly recommend you read this blog: http://fashion-incubator.com/ It's VERY technical, basically the engineering of apparel manufacturing, but it's fascinating!

I look forward to seeing your results!
