Unit 119: Printed Textiles for Fashion and Clothing
Unit 119: Printed Textiles Code: R/502/5438 QCF Level 3: BTEC National Credit value: 10 Guided learning hours: 60 Aim and purpose The aim of the unit is to develop learners’ knowledge and skills in the use of printed textiles for different applications and their understanding of the way designers, artists and craftworkers work with traditional and non-traditional materials to produce individual and diverse work using a variety of techniques. Unit introduction Textile designers, who produce designs for commercial fashion and clothing, work with small and large pattern repeats. Large-scale designs that wrap around a garment can be produced by textile artists who use printed textiles to communicate and express ideas in their personal work and these are usually one-off pieces. Textile designers usually produce hand painted designs or computer generated work which is sold to buyers on behalf of fabric printers. Ideas are then adapted and put into production. Designers usually present their ideas in a selection of colour-ways that follow seasonal or independent trend predictions. The aim of the unit is to introduce learners to the techniques and application of printed textiles in fashion and clothing. Fashion designers and textile artists work with traditional and non-traditional materials to produce individual and exciting work using a variety of techniques. Designers use a range of skills in developing ideas for printed textiles. Learners will research a range of visual sources including exploring the work of historical and contemporary textile designers. They will develop these sources using a variety of materials, techniques and processes using both traditional and non-traditional materials. -

The background information outlines the ideas and environment that led to the DANAD Design collective, exploring how they were the early instigators of Pop Art in Britain with a lasting impact on textiles, fashion and interior design from the 1960s to today. It also explores how their work links back to the creative principles of both William Morris and the Bauhaus, in their desire to bring art, craft and design together. -

I have learnt, grown and made great friends. I would like to thank my amazing supervisor Holly McQuil- lan, without whose support and knowledge my work would not be the same. And all the other lecturers and staff (especially the print technicians, Sara and Emilia) for all the help. It has been a pleasure being here, working alongside everyone. I am most grateful for our class, the amazing people and creatives: the community we built to support each other and share everything has felt like a family. The times we had together I will treasure dearly. And lastly, to my family and friends, for always supporting me in my decisions, before I even take them. For believing in me and cheering me on.
