Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I am working in a team
What materials will you need for your project?
I will need needles, pins, fabric, sewing machine, and measuring tape
What is your plan to create in this project?
Our plan is to create a half and half jersey with random designs on it
What unique qualities will your project have?
Nobody will have the same project as us
Day 1
For today I made my planning questions, list of 10, and measured preston so we know what to sew and how big to sew it.
Day 2
For this day I stiched teh jersery together.
Day 3
For today we finished sewing the sides together
Day 4
For today we made the arm sleeves and now were rworking on hand stitching the numbers
Day 5
For today we hand stitched the numbers on the jersey
Day 6
For today we finished the jersey and added the designs

My partners both play basketball, so we thought it would be a cool project to make together. We planned the design using digital tools before starting the sewing process. This helped us make our NBA jersey we mad eofr our project.
During this process, I learned that you can’t use the sewing machine for everything. Some parts of the jersey required hand sewing instead. At first, I didn’t expect that hand sewing would be necessary. This taught me that different tools are needed for different parts of a project.
The seven standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project connects most to the Innovative Designer standard. We learned how to use equipment like a sewing machine that we had never used before. By learning and applying these skills, we were able to successfully create our jersey.
A challenge I had to overcome while working on this project was hand sewing. We originally thought hand sewing would take too long and slow us down. I was able to overcome this challenge by using my time wisely. Staying focused and avoiding distractions helped me get the work done.
If I were given the chance to do this project again, I would change the size of the jersey. The current jersey is a little uneven in some areas. It also only fits me and not my partners. Making better measurements would improve the final result.
Hastings High School’s Career and Technical Education program offers Agriculture, Business Management, Computer Programming, Construction Trades, Culinary Arts, Digital Multimedia, Engineering Design, Finance, Insurance, and Marketing. My project connects to the Engineering Design CTE program. Designing and creating the jersey required planning, problem-solving, and hands-on work. These are all important skills used in engineering design.
My project also connects to careers like seamstress or dressmaker. These careers involve sewing clothing and making sure it fits people correctly. Seamstresses also repair and adjust clothing when needed. This project helped me understand how important precision and skill are in these jobs.
