Textiles Level 4
Welcome to Textiles 12! The main goal of Textiles 12 is to teach you to become independent in your advanced level of clothing construction, fitting, and pattern manipulation. You will learn to make fitting and style adjustments to patterns, and you will also continue to build skills in embellishing, altering, repairing and caring for clothing that you buy.
Since our goal this year is to help you become independent in your sewing projects, you will have total freedom in the projects you sew. However, as grade 12s, the projects should reflect advanced sewing skills. For those who plan to apply to a post-secondary Fashion program, such as Kwantlen, you can continue building your portfolio in this course. My suggestions for projects at this level include the following:
1st Term – Buttoned, collared shirt
2nd Term – Evening Dress
3rd Term – Lined jacket
Fashion Friday challenges, alterations, repairs, and extra projects are also part of each term's marks.
At least two of your garments should be submitted into the Grad Fashion Show.
