  24. Decorating methods • In the exam you will be asked to design a hat, with some decoration on it. • You will need to be able to accurately explain how to carry out a decoration of your choice. • It is important that you practise writing out & drawing instructions for your chosen design. • Don’t try to learn them all. • Design your hat first. • Decide on colours and fabrics. • Practise writing about how to do your decoration. This is easier to do if you have actually had a go at doing the decoration yourself. (Writing about making a ribbon flower is easier if you have actually done it).

  25. Bias binding http://www.sewing.org/enthusiast/html/el_biasbinding.html

  26. Begin with needle and thread on the underside of the fabric. Place the sequin on the top side of the fabric, sitting in the position that you want it to be. Bring the needle up through the fabric and draw it through the centre of the sequin. Leave a long tail of thread on the underside. Come back to the backside of the fabric. Cross the thread over the top of the sequin. Tie the ends of the thread together on the back side to create secure knot. Move on to the next sequin. The more that you sew, the faster this will become as it becomes second nature and you just go through the motions. Sewing sequins http://www.wikihow.com/Sew-a-Sequin-on-Fabric
