Tips for gathering evidence to demonstrate your skills

The important thing to remember when gathering evidence is that the more evidence the better - that is, the more evidence you gather to demonstrate your skills, the more confident an assessor can be that you have learned the skills not just at one point in time, but are continuing to apply and develop those skills (as opposed to just learning for the test!). Furthermore, one piece of evidence that you collect will not usualy demonstrate all the required criteria for a unit of competency, whereas multiple overlapping pieces of evidence will usually do the trick!

LMTCL1001B - Produce a simple garment

What evidence can you provide to prove your understanding of each of the following citeria?

Prepare garment components

  1. Pattern is selected according to size and style required.
  2. Fabric is selected to suit purpose and design of garment.
  3. Sequencing of garment assembly operations is determined according to pattern requirements.
  4. Fabric amount is calculated according to fabric width, pattern size and pattern requirements.
  5. Pattern pieces are laid out and pinned or tacked to make best use of fabric length and to match fabric pattern, nap and weave.
  6. Fabric is cut according to seam allowances and pattern markings.
  7. Cut pattern pieces are checked against garment requirements and fabric characteristics, and any required corrections are made.
  8. Garment components are laid out according to sequence of assembly operations.
Pattern is selected according to size and style required.
