  2. gain knowledge and understanding of the design and make process understand who you are designing for by creating a customer profile design and label a range of products write a design specification produce a step-by-step plan for making your product make a quality product add 10 keywords to your vocabulary Did you know that in the UK we throw away an amazing ONE MILLION tonnes of textiles each year? Any old clothes, curtains, bedding or carpet that we put in the bin end up in a landfill site – a big hole in the ground used for dumping rubbish. Not only is this a waste of natural resources, it can also cause air and water pollution. So what are the alternatives? • You could recycle old textiles by taking them to a recycling bank. Wearable clothes are sent to people who need them in other countries. Everything else is made into new products, such as clothes, rags and cleaning cloths. • You could reuse textiles by giving them to a friend or taking them to a charity shop, where they are sold to raise money for charity. • Or you could try turning the old, unwanted textiles into something new and exciting… Design and make a good quality textiles product from some throwaway textiles (anything from old curtains to garments) that you have collected from home or bought from a charity shop. In this unit you will: Fabric Natural Embellishment Pattern Sewing Needle Components Disassemble Synthetic Fibre

  3. Go to the Learning Context page at http://www.stepin.org/index.php?id=w2w_learning and look at the Did you know? facts. Follow the links and collect your own fascinating facts about textiles and write them down here.

  4. Go to the Research page at ((need specific address for this part of the site)) and read the case studies about eco-fashion, eco-designers, recycled fleeces, rag rugging and crazy quilting. Using words and pictures create an ‘mood board’ within the cogs to illustrate two of your favourite case studies.

  5. Have you brought in some throwaway textile products from home? Choose two of the products that you like. For each one answer the questions by filling in the boxes.

  6. Continue your work on your other chosen product here.

  7. I want my product to… • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________ • _____________________________________________________________________

  8. Go out and do a survey. Ask some possible customers what they Like etc. Add their comments into the speech bubbles below: Who is going to buy and use your textile product? What do they like? What don’t they like? Write, draw and stick pictures here to show the type of customer you are designing for:

  9. How can you join textiles to make your product? Look at the information you have already collected. Write, draw and stick examples here to show the different joining methods you could use.

  10. Using your research, specification and customer profile, draw at least FIVE different design ideas for a product. Remember to consider the sustainability of your product. Label your drawings and explain any changes that you decide to make to your design. You can start your ideas on this page and continue on the following page(s). Remember to evaluate your work as it develops. Ask yourself; 1. Which is your favourite design and why? 2. How could you improve it? 3. List at least three pieces of equipment you would use to make it. 4. What other features can you comment on? “At least half of the one million tonnes of textiles that we throw away each year in the UK could be recycled or reused.”

  11. Look at your specifications to select the most appropriate design. Draw your final design here.

  12. Draw and write a step-by-step plan for making your product. Fill in the chart below to show what equipment you are going to use to make your product. How do you plan to use each piece of equipment? Equipment Use

  13. How could you have improved your work on this project? Try to think about the way you worked, rather than about your final product. Design work Identify two faults with your design work and suggest improvements you could make. 1) Fault: Improvement: 2) Fault: Improvement: Practical work Identify two faults with your practical work and suggest improvements you could make. 1) Fault: Improvement: 2) Fault: Improvement: Personal evaluation Overall, how do you think you tackled this project? What were your strengths and weaknesses? What did you enjoy most? What did you find easy? What was difficult? Try to be as detailed as possible.

  14. Now it is time to judge the quality of your final product using your design specification. In the table below, fill in what you said you wanted your product to do (your specification) and then say how well your final product does each of these things. My targets for the next project are: Assessment Effort level: Designing and making level:

  15. Exploring existing ideas Product specification Exploring ideas Developing & modelling ideas Generating design ideas Final design Planning Evaluation
