Changjiang Daily Financial Media, January 14 (reporter Tian Qiaoping) On the morning of the 14th, in a small clothing workshop at the foot of the Rouge Mountain in Wuchang, 26 senior college students were concentrating on learning the cutting and sewing techniques of double-sided cashmere overcoats. They were taught hand in hand by Wang Chunrong, who taught prototype cutting and clothing color matching in seven senior universities in Wuhan. The classroom was Wang Chunrong's own clothing workshop.

Having learned basic tailoring, I want to go further

On the 14th, 26 senior college students were present, the youngest being 50 years old and the oldest being 70 years old. They learned prototype tailoring in different universities for the elderly. After the winter vacation began on January 1, they asked their teacher Wang Chunrong not to give them a holiday, but to open a remedial class. "Want to learn something more difficult!"

The special subject class taught by Wang Chunrong is double-sided cashmere. Double faced cashmere is a new kind of clothing fabric, and its production process is also new.

Dai Dai, 50 years old, used to be engaged in textile printing and dyeing, and she was fond of garment making. She had a good foundation and learned quickly, so she was called "Tsinghua graduate" by her partners. In September last year, she began to take the prototype cutting class of teacher Wang Chunrong in Xiangjiang Road Campus of Wuhan University for the Aged, and now she can make her own coat.

"There is a big difference between learning in the classroom of the University for the Aged and learning in Mr. Wang's workshop. It is no good not to make up lessons in winter vacation!" Dai Dai told the Changjiang Daily that the clothing equipment and tools in the classroom of the University for the Aged are restricted. For example, the woolen clothes need to be ironed while being made, and the teaching room of the University for the Aged has no relevant equipment. Mr. Wang's workshop is complete with these things. For this double-sided cashmere, the key process is sewing. Professional sewing machines are more than 800 to 1000, and we won't buy them. Teacher Wang taught us to tear seams manually. “

70 year old Sister Jia pulled Dai Dai to discuss how to make a version. Typography is the content of the last lesson. Sister Jia is old, and it takes longer to learn a craft than to wear it.

Liu Li, 65, has just learned prototype tailoring for a year and a half. She has learned traditional tailoring for six years before. Now, she makes all the clothes of the whole family over the middle age, including the elder's dress for the children's wedding. " Now we can afford to buy famous brand clothes, and there are many cheap clothes, but I only wear clothes made by myself. I enjoy the process! "

In order to train students, the teacher workshop stopped production for one day

Teacher Wang Chunrong told the Changjiang Daily that the level of students in each class of the tailoring class of the University for the Elderly is different, and the starting point and requirements are also different. In addition, due to the limitation of equipment, some contents cannot be explained thoroughly in college classes, and some contents can only be mastered by hand holding teachers. The opening of the Winter Holiday Training and Excellence Class is also in response to the strong request of the students. These students are senior enthusiasts of clothing cutting, and most of them can make clothes by themselves. The training and excellence class is to learn new techniques.

There were more than 60 senior college students in Wang Chunrong's clothing workshop during the winter vacation, who came from the prototype cutting classes of 7 senior college where Mr. Wang belongs. Teacher Wang will extensively ask for the opinions of the students in advance about what to do in each class, and decide according to their needs. The workshop is only over 100 square meters, and each class can only accommodate about 25 people.

When the students came, the workshop stopped production for one day. Two lathe workers became Mr. Wang's teaching assistants. The equipment and materials in the workshop were the students' training tools. The tuition is 100 yuan a day. Generally, you can learn a style of clothes in one day.
