I've made myself a shirt in the Socialdress sense. That's why I've made it without a button and a zipper. I will wear it at various occasions, that means for out, and for office as well. At workshop I liked that I vas able to help other girls at sewing and cutting as well as at consulting about what it would fit them. They were very perceptible.

I've made myself trousers. Actually they are still in process with one trouser leg. I will wear them at a syndicate party. I've learnt few tricks, for example how to make a trousers slash properly. Mostly I've learnt that I still cannot organize my time in the order to finish something until deadline.

I've made myself a wrap-over skirt. I will probably wear it over trousers, that's my plan. I will wear it everyday, at street and in office. I've found interesting at this workshop that it was very relaxed. We helped each other and we very quicly finished all things.

Dusan

I came here because I had to deliver something to Mojca, and I stayed at workshop. I've made two pen-cases. I had in primary school something like that but this one has three buttons and six holes, that's why this is special. My second product is for Brigit's daughter Alisa. This one has more sophisticated opening system with zipper. The first pen-case will be in use for varius ceremonial events, the other one is for everyday use. Teja has made a sister of this pen-case that is more arch.

I've made myself a skirt. I will wear it during the day. I came to the workshop because I wanted to learn how to sew, because I haven't before. I liked the idea to design with artistic fabric.

I've made myself a bag, the great over-shoulder bag. These are my favorite bags, because I could put planty things inside. I cannot have only few bags, even that is unpossible to find anything in them. This is another bag in my bags serial. It is very cute. I think that it will become a summer bag, beacuse of yellow collor. The bag is too thin for a winter, my belongings would get cold in it.

I came to the workshop with the big wishes to learn how to sew. But the most interesting thing was, that I lost a sewing machine fright. It is stil a beast, absolutely is a beast, but it could be tamed. I've made myself a very cute skirt. In the middle of process we had run short of fabric, and we were rescuing the situation with the leftover of a chair tapestry. We rescued ourself in this way.

Mateja K.

I've decided to make myself a wrap-over skirt, because it allows you to freely gain or lose flesh. I will wear it for various opportunities, aspecially at office. I work in a organization with many conservative people, and I will like to wear my skirt there. My daughter has made a baby tunic and will wear it for at school for the chemistry exercises in lab.

Metja

I've made myself a cheerful social dress, which I will wear it at cheerful social events. My experience is that I would actually sew more clothes if I sewed in such company.

Polonca

I've made such a great shirt, in four sheets, with pockets. I combined it with a transparent elastic band. I think it will be usefull in sommer time and in winter time, to wear it over. I am very happy, and enthusiastic, because I've made it. My mother sews as well. Latelly I I ahe been at odds with her and I wanted to prove her that I am capable to make something myself. I liked workshop very much, because the gilrs were very relaxed and helpfull.

Teja

The pen-case is totally arch, because there is a mistake in a concept yet. The design has a slight mistake which actually make this pen-case more noble. But unfortuantelly it is very unpractical. Among other I've made myself a trousers which were the product of hard work, of course. The credit go to advisers, because this trousers would not fit the same without their help. The trousers will be worn above all in rainy and sunny days with the aim to shine on street.

I found this workshop at a graphic biennial and it immediately semed to me interesting, because I could learn there something new. My plan is to use this cut also in future. Namely I've made a shirt. I will wear it the same way like other rags. It is a little different because of the special fabric.

Once upon a time there was a sewing maschine, which doesn't know why it has been named sewing. There was also the machine owner, who didn't know how to use the machine. And then the Mojca's workshop happened, and they both had found their meanings. A meaning has resulted in a special top, which would shine at special occasions.

Spela

I came here with the idea to make a dress. Mojca helped me the most at this. After me is one nice rainbow day, I wear rainbow dress. A yellow collor brings me luck, it is my collor. I think I will vear the dress everywhere

Tadeja

The workshop was a challenge for me, because I never had a machine in the front of me before. I took everything like a game. And I liked it very much. I like my product, I think I will wear iy for out, to show myself. I liked the idea very much and I liked very much the fabric pattern as well.

Adela and Klara

Because we had very little time, we decided to make a bag. Klara will probably wear it every day, at least at the beginning. We decided for bag by common consent. We also designed it in team, although I have to say that Klara had a biger role at this. I was more cooperative, and I sewn it together. Maybe I will borrow it somethime.

Juca

I've made myself a top. I attend to wear it every day. This was my first workshop. I.'ve learnt some basics. I didn't know before nothing about sewing, but now I think I have got some clue.

I've made myself a skirt because I always wear trousers. I will wear this shirt on street. People know me and will notice the difference, and will mention that. I am very happy, I've realy learned alot.

I was invited to this wokrshop and I gladly came. I've made myself a broad fantasy skirt, and I would wear it at ceremonial events.

At a Socialdress workshop was great. I've made a wrap-over skirt, a real bestseller! I've surprised myself. I will wear a skirt everywhere, where I should not?

I've made myself a skirt, the first of mine, and put up such a splendid ribbon and even more splendid zipper. This was my goal for today, to use these two items with this fabric. It was great experience and I would like to do it again.

I've made myself a bag because I needed a new one. I looked for it before but I couldn't find any proper bag for me. I'm going to wear it all the time. I need it for a telephone and a wallet. I like the fact that I've made it myself, but in the same time it is also a part of another concept.

I attended the workshop because I have never before seat at sewing machine and I wanted to check this with a professional help. I've made myself a switch-shirt. It is going to be appropriate for summer days. It is special, because of a fabric and mostly because of a way of production. This is really Socialdress in a sense of collaboration, socializing, and exchanging experiences. I have gained incredible amount of new skills. I believe that now I will seat at sewing machine without prejudices.

Polona

I've made myself a bag for Summer Museum Night. It will go with me to the seaside as well. Beside the fabric that I both at the workshop I brought some ribbons with me, which I composed together. I accustomed quickly, and it was great.

Aleksandra G.

I've made myself a skirt from my own fabric, and I also included Mojca's fabric. I will wear the skirt at all occasions, mostly for openings. I founded sewing very interesting. I improvised a little bit, and enjoyed.

Nina

I've made myself a skirt because is a summer and this is a right season for it. I certainly wouldn't succeed without help. I will wear it every day.

Dress for Maja's Sister

Maja made a dress at home and brought it to the workshop to show it. The dress is for her sister, fitted by Aleksandra.

I've made myself a summer dress, a dangling one. I will wear it to a seaside. There is only a black pocket missing and probably I will put up some wooden beads. Today was good here. Although I never experienced six hours of sewing, I would probably do it again at home. Maybe in two days.

Ida

My product is a Vintage skirt for seaside sun set walks. The workshop was interesting experience with new people, strengthening old skills and gaining new skills, in short - one pleasant working and funny Saturday. Sewing is not that easy as it looks like. Straight seams aren't straight at end, but you can succeed with a help. I hope that all my new products will be like this one.

Katja

I've made myself a switch-shirt. I will wear it now, because is a right season for it. A workshop was very creative and funny again. It started a little insecure, but at the end everything worked out well as usually, and I am satisfied.
