You are on track with your units, only needing to pass 127 and 6.  Your blog needs a lot of work, add your extra samples and as always put your research next to the samples with pictures of illustrations.  To get a merit grade this needs to be done immediately.

Ensure you are adding your opinion to your samples and toiles, discuss if you think they are successful and will you use for final piece.

Discussion surrounded your illustrations,  they tended to be copies of the work of other fashion designers.  You will benefit from taking this as a starting point and coming up with drawings based on these initial ideas.  We have refined it down to two designs, now sketch 5 x variations on each one.  Keep up with weekly diary.
