Level 3 Technology - Textiles

This course covers an introduction to the skills required to independently follow and execute an advanced sewing pattern.
Students will learn advanced construction skills, pattern reading, design illustration, researching design origins and technological modelling.
There will be the opportunity to enter design competitions toward the latter half of the year and work on developing portfolios for tertiary applications.

Beyond physical sewing skills, in this course students will investigate the following: introductions to the textiles pipeline, sustainability and ethics throughout the textiles pipeline, career pathways in textiles. 

Students will aim to complete one garment using an advanced pattern and complex techniques.
Once finished their garment and book work, students are free to use their remaining time in this class to explore new techniques and make an unmarked garment of their choosing.
