At the begining of the parade I was surprised, when I was announced the winner of the 2010 Lecturers Choice Award for high level achievement of learning outcomes, including independent learning, high level technical skill, innovation, time management and overall quality of workmanship in the field of fashion design. I was soooo excited and nervous. I won a trip to Melbourne for a 5 day pattern making course with Gerber!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
