• Develop and test design ideas by creating pattern pieces and making prototypes to explore how well they work.
• Use labelled drawings and diagrams to show clear design ideas, including how pattern pieces will fit together.
• Use fabrics and materials suitable for the product, thinking about how they look and how well they work.
• Make 3D textile shapes by carefully cutting, folding and joining materials to match the design.
• Join fabrics securely using stitches or knots and add decorative details to improve the appearance.
• Use pins, scissors and other tools carefully to keep fabric flat and measure and cut accurately.
