Year 8’s have started working on their mirror rotation pattern repeats and they’re looking awesome… can’t wait to see them sublimated onto satin fabric!

Year 7’s started producing their drawings pages in textiles last week, they’re looking great and students will have loads of inspiration for their design ideas going forward…
