Designing with Textiles This year-long course offers students a unique opportunity to explore their creativity through various projects. They will learn basic design techniques with an emphasis on sustainability, additionally students will delve into historical trends and influences on fashion. This comprehensive approach not only fosters self-expression but also equips students with valuable skills and knowledge for sustainable and culturally aware design practices. Practical projects may include a woven cushion cover, designer beach bag, a skirt for the social and a teddy bear, all stored in a reusable zipped case.
- Undertaken for two periods per week
Throughout Textiles this year, we have made some amazing projects, such as our own cushion covers and personalised beach bags. Textiles is my favourite elective because of the creative nature of the subject, as well as having the opportunity to make our own useful items. Charlee Thornett
