New Event ClarificationsQ: Can students participating in the Flat Pattern portion of Fashion

Design use a basic commercial flat pattern?

A: Yes.

Q: Can students participating in the Fashion Construction portion of Fashion Design use a basic commercial flat pattern?

A: Yes.

Q: If a student is participating in Flat Pattern Design, do you have to construct their design?

A: If they choose. The manual states, “display pattern pieces, sample and/or finished design”

Q: Does a participant in Financial Planning have to use the provided grid for the Event Plan (page 138 of manual)?

A: No. However, the manual states on page 136, “One to five pages using the chart format provided…” If a participant needs larger boxes to fit their information that is fine as long as the format for the information stays the same.
