 WEEK 10   I presented my sample designs and finalized topics to the lecturers, who gave me the green light to proceed but suggested a few adjustments. They advised me to tweak certain elements, particularly the zippers and pockets, which I later revised and included in my presentation. Toward the end of the week, Prof. Thomas and his team provided us with fabrics, specifying that one garment should be made from the fabric they allocated, while the remaining three garments would be constructed using calico.
