Art Xmas Collage ideas using 3 powerpoints 12 Days of Xmas and Aminah Robinson’s mixed media collage

Attached are three powerpoints for developing a KS3 Collage in Fabric on the 12 Days of Xmas and the artist Aminah Robinson. ​ Students use the 'resources' powerpoint to draw ideas to make up their own design for the 12 days of Xmas.     Class divided and each child gets a different day to design.     I used Black velvet fabric as my backing fabric and each time the student did their drawing I traced this onto different coloured fabric shapes and students then cut this out and pritt sticked this onto the black velvet fabric.     There are three powerpoint lessons attached - first is the resources for designing day of the song.     Second is the Artist interpretation and learning about different fabric artists.     Thirdly, students then cut their designs out in fabric - I used transfer receipt like paper so students could trace onto the fabric and then cut out.     Finally students then embellish their fabric with different stitches and I have a powerpoint with video links on how to do the different stitches: running stitch, blanket stitch, satin stitch, chain stitch and daisy stitch..
