Year 7 Faculty Showcase: Creative Wash Bags

In Term 3 our year 7 Textiles students made wash bags.  Earlier in the year they had designed a block print on the 2D Design CAD programme.  Their block prints were cut on the laser printer and the students used them to decorate their wash bags.  Using a choice of fabric colour for their washbag, and a variety of fabric paints for their block print designs, they produced a wide range of fantastic products – well done!
