In this resource, you will receive an A4 print out for a ‘booklet/zine’ about the A-E of Embroidery Stitches (arrowhead stitch, backstitch, chain stitch, darning stitch and eyelet stitch). In the booklet, there are QR links to supporting tutorials for each stitch. One of the QR codes (page 1) will take you to a FULL LESSON specifically made by me for this resource. In this lesson, I show the students how to actually make the booklet (only scissors required) and go into details about specific needle uses, how to use a fabric hoop and how to carry out each embroidery stitch. Enjoy it and please review if you like my resources as it helps support my page! :)

This is a wonderfully colourful, bright and informative A4 or A3 landscape textiles and fashion artists/designers poster for your classroom. There is one collum dedicated to Welsh textile artists and an interactive QR code for students to scan to see how Iris van Herpen’s clothing is made. Enjoy it :)

An A4 textiles evaluation worksheet that encourages students to reflect on their learning at the end of a unit or term. There are 7 different prompt boxes that ask questions such as; ‘What skills have you improved in textiles this term?’ and ‘What lesson have you most enjoyed and why?’. If done properly, it should take around 15-20 minutes to complete. It is a great plenary or starter activity.

You can use this in both an Art or Textiles lesson. The resource has one plain tote bag template outline, which the students are asked to design with patterns and colours. Around the bag, it includes questions and prompts such as; colour choice, technique, fabric choice, artist inspiration, positives, design choice, motif and possible changes. There is a completed example sheet on the second page so you are able to show your students a visual examplar.
