Platemaking

 

 Last time when we were learning making Zongzi in Active Learning Center, we saw Ms. Hsu introduce to her students about how to make rabbit bunny, coin purse and handbag. Then we knew the Zongzi was very rudimentary. After discussion, we felt we should experience the process of modeling, tailoring and sewing, so we asked Ms. Hsu to teach us how to make toys. So we started our following lessons.

 

(1) Platemaking

The rabbit bunny we were going to make were very cute. We looked forward to it.

Step 1:
Paste the paper model onto the cardboard and cut it down.

Ms. Hsu told us how to tell the opposite side of the cloth. So we would not draw on the wrong side.

Step 2:  Choose a suitable piece of cloth and draw the model on to it.

Step 3: Cut down the picture that has been drawn, and leave a 0.5cm wide edge.

 

 

Due to time limit, Ms. Hsu asked us to finish the model at home and bring it back the next class.
