Week 7 - Reflection

How long does my product take to make? We have not timed it yet so we dont know, we have not timed it cause we do it in lots so it takes even longer but we make more in total. We think if we do one by itself it could take about 3 minutes.

How many parts to my product? There are 5 diffenent parts, 1) first we cut out our shape into a circle, 2) cut it to the right pieces, 3) sew one side, 4) get another one that is sewed on one side too then put on in the other and sew, 5) then you have the base of the mask and you add the elastic bands. So there its 5 parts

How long does each piece take? the fablic takes around 1 minute to cut it out,  30 seconds to sew one half of it, then after to close it up another 30 sewing, then about 40 seconds putting the elastic bands on.

How have I ensured quality in the finished of my product? By cutting off the lose sewing threads so it does not cut them. By making the elastic bands not tight so it does not come off and hurt them.

How will my market stall look? We will have a table in front of us with the prices and some display masks, but the rest of them will be behide us in a box or something to no one steals the masks. Our roles will be Aiden getting the mask for the people me ask what they want and Jordan getting the money the giving them money if they give us too much.

Something went well and did not go well? The thing that went well is making proguess we did a lot of finishing the sewing, now we are onto putting the elastic bands on then we are done. The bad thing that bad is I didn't know how to sew so I really didnt do too much, but I did to some things like managing whats happening and tell them what role to do.
