REFLECTION

Because of our Project in TLE, I learned to sew an Apron. It may be difficult at first, but if we
work hard to make it, we will be able to finish it on time. This project allowed me to have ideas on what are
the procedures and what are the necessary materials needed to make an apron. It also helped me enhance
my knowledge on sewing. With this skill, we can do many things not just limited on making aprons but also
we can explore and be able to make shirts, handkerchiefs, and a lot more.

Before we made our apron, we did a draft on a manila paper to have a guideline on what the output
will look like. This taught me how to be independent for the reason that we, ourselves did the apron. As I go
through process, I realized that sewing is an important and helpful skill in our everyday life and that it should
not be stereotyped to girls because I believe that all of us are capable and should learn this.
