This is a beginning course for designers looking to develop their skills in the areas of color, pattern design and simple fabric construction. Students will create their own prints and patterns using beginning textile processes such as stamping, printing, image transfer and fabric dyeing. Students will explore the elements of art and principles of design in a series of projects that move from two-dimensions to three-dimensions. Basic hand stitching and machine sewing will be introduced as students progress from making basic prints to creating basic apparel, fashion and interior accessories.
