Year 12 Major Textiles Project

The Year 12 Major Textiles Project is worth 50% of the HSC mark. Students select a project from one of the five focus areas: apparel, non-apparel, furnishings, textile arts or costume. This enables students to explore an area of interest.

The project has two components: the supporting documentation (portfolio) and textile item/s.

The folio consists of four sections: Design inspiration, Visual design concept development, Project manufacture specification, Investigation, experimentation and evaluation. The folio is 24 pages (A4 or 12 pages (A3). Students use a commercial pattern which they modify or make their own. They manufacture and decorate their major project over 4 terms. This year we have a range of costume, apparel and furnishings.

I am very proud of what our students have achieved, using beautiful details and techniques.
