​ Textiles in our daily lives.
​ From birth textiles surround you. They cover and protect you. Textiles decorate and improve the comfort of your environment. Textiles play a significant role with a wide variety of applications, which range from personal to industrial uses. For this project we are examining textiles used in interior design.

Tools help you to work with raw materials and manipulate them into a final product. They are usually designed for a specific task to achieve particular results. Some tools are related specifically to textiles technology. They help you to work with raw materials, such as threads, yarns and fabrics.

This is my reseacrh on what types of tools they use on fabric: My independant research: Tie dye : In class we did tie dye.The colour we did was and pink/ red colour. I used two techniques:marbling and a circle tecnique.For the marbling I rolled it up into a ball and held it together with an elastic band and for the circle technique i used elastic bands and tied it up all the way up the fabric.I really liuked using the tie dye andi am planning to use it on my pillow. appliqu'e : Miss lemon showed us how to appliqu'e.You cut out the shape or letter of of what you want and you iron it onto a sticky type of paper.Then you cut that out and then you iron it onto the backing fabric.I enjoyed using this technique and i will be using it on my pillow.
