 Muggle Studies Term Long Assignment
When you enter the new room on the first floor and just beside the Entertainment Room, you will not be surprised to see rows of mannequins. There is ample space between these rows as well as the distance between each mannequin so that you can easily manouever among them. They are all striking trendy poses. Seems like they’re ready to be dressed in those creations of yours.
Speaking of your creations. Are you thinking of trying your luck at making an eye catching piece of clothing or two? You needn’t have to worry! There are tables set up with the familiar sewing machines. Of course it needs to be set up. Each table has drawers and within these drawers you’ll find all the necessary materials that you would need: scissors, thimbles, needles, buttons, threaders, pins, threads of various colours among others. There is even a first aid kit should you injure yourself but let’s hope it does not come to that.
There is a large clothes cupboard bracing the wall to the back of the room. Here, you’ll find a variety of textiles of all textures and colours. You’re free to use any of these to make your clothing.
Not sure exactly how to get started? Well, there are quite a bit of books on a bookshelf next to the cupboard, all relating to the topic of the basics of sewing and stitching. In addition, you may use the computers from the Entertainment Room to assist you in researching.
Go ahead! Get started! Most of all, have fun! OOC Information:
