A recent Wall Street Journal post declared: “American factories are hiring again. But they aren’t hiring women.” At first glance, this is a bit of a shocking statement. On the upside, U.S. factories have added more than half a million workers in the past three years. Many of these jobs have been created in the durable-goods sector. Industries like auto-assembly or appliance production are on the up-swing. And while hiring is good sign for American manufacturing, it is important to see the changes in those selected to fill new jobs. Are women being left behind? The decline of women in manufacturing jobs, according to the post, can be traced to a trend that began years ago. Women saw an increase of jobs in the decades between 1960 and 1980. In the 1990s women had nearly a third of all factory jobs. After that peak, the recession eroded jobs across the board and particularly affected positions held by women. In 2012, women held about 27% of manufacturing jobs. Automation has been a factor in the decline of numbers of employees. Changing to automated methods has made the jobs less physically demanding, but it has also replaced traditional female roles like quality […]

One of the coolest things about fashion and runway shows is seeing the things that designers create for models to hoist on top of their heads. Hats, hair, feathers, birdcages, carousels, and even ships have been pieced together to form some of the most fantastic headpieces I’ve ever seen. Note to Sandra: This one is for …

As teachers (and tutors) we've been trained to recognize and differentiate according to student needs, including their individual learning styles. But how important is it for our students to understand their learning styles? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this one, so please, sound off in the comments below. Found on Pinterest Here's an interactive lesson you can use with your kiddos. They will take a self assessment and then learn about their strongest learning styles. This should prove to be an invaluable tool in your teaching/tutoring repertoire! http://www.educationworld.com Once you AND your students have a good understanding of their learning styles, you can tailor your lessons to meet their needs. Here are a few links I've found that might help you design lessons to reach your students from their perspective!

Ontworpen door Howard Greer voor Katharine Hepburn in haar eerste hoofdrol (als Cynthia Darrington, Christopher Strong), maakte dit jasje deel uit van het ensemble dat ook in patroonvorm beschikbaar werd gesteld door de Butterick Pattern Company als onderdeel van hun 'Starred'-serie! In 2007 heb ik dit patroon in meerdere maten gemaakt (van het origineel met één maat) in maatset A, passend 12-16 (buste van 30 tot 34 inch, taille van 25 tot 28 inch, heup van 33 tot 37 inch). B passend voor 18-40 (36" tot 40" buste, 30" tot 34" taille, 39" tot 45" heup) en set C passend voor 42-46 (42" tot 46" buste, 36" tot 40" taille, 47 " tot 49" heup)-zie opties. Dit patroon heeft 3/4"-naden aan de onderarmnaden (alle zijkanten) en 3/8"-naden aan alle andere randen. Wordt geleverd met geïllustreerde instructies. De middenachternaad van het jasje lag precies schuin, zodat geruite of gestreepte stoffen het chevron-effect laten zien! Op basis van dit patroon schreef ik voor Threads Magazine. Zie het artikel hier: http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/4669/working-with-vintage-patterns/page/all Ik zou het jasje als een geavanceerd naainiveau beschouwen, omdat er een kruisje in de onderarm is genaaid. Ik heb hiervoor extra geïllustreerde instructies gegeven. Ik bied de jurk en muts bij dit jasje ook aan via deze Etsy verkooppagina: https://www.etsy.com/listing/248734975/1933-katharine-hepburn-ensemble-size?ref=listings_manager_grid Al mijn patronen zijn op volledige grootte op doorschijnend bankpostpapier van 18 pond en op voorraad omdat ik ze op aanvraag afdruk. Dit bankpostpapier is stevig genoeg zodat het niet scheurt zoals patroonweefsel, maar toch licht genoeg om gemakkelijk te zien en door te snijden. Wij vieren meer dan 20 jaar nauwkeurig gereproduceerde vintage patronen! Zie mij op www.EvaDress.com voor honderden (ja, HONDERDEN) meer! PATROON NIET IN UW MAAT? Op verzoek stuur ik graag een extra schema aan waarin wordt aangegeven waar de patroondelen moeten worden aangepast, met instructies over hoe het patroon opnieuw kan worden aangepast.
