Skills Project 2: Waistcoat
PROJECT OBJECTIVES:• Use research to design and
make products• Describe methods of
prototyping used in industry• Apply own knowledge and
understanding to select and use appropriate equipment, materials and processes
• Manufacture a quality product• Apply quality control
measures• Evaluate a product

Construction/Completion of waistcoat/Evaluation
4 Week Project. Start: 01/10/12 Complete: 26/10/12
Design BriefDesign and make a prototype of child’s waistcoat, inspired by the Pop
Art movement, using a range of decorative and constructional textiles techniques.
Task 1:Pop Art Research – When using a specific topic to inspire the design of
your product you need to find out about that topic. For this project it has already been done for you!.
• The information and images you have been given need to be presented on an A3-A2 sheet along with your own designs and a small number of linked textiles samples.
What are main themes/styles associated with Pop Art?Who are the main/most popular artists?Are there any iconic/famous images or objects associated withPop Art?
Create some of your own original drawings/designs inspired by the ones you have been given. You will then be able to use these for your textiles work next lesson.
HOMEWORK: DUE NEXT LESSON – Collect a range of EXISTING PRODUCT Images
Hour 1
Pop art presented a challenge to traditions of fine art by including imagery from popular culture such as advertising, news, etc.
Pop art employs aspects of mass culture, such as advertising, comic books and mundane cultural objects
Bright Colours, Repeat Patterns
Brands and Logos
Marylin Monroe, Coca Cola, Campbells, Soup, Mickey Mouse,
Comic Books Consider these key points and images to produce a range of your own images and designs linked to pop art.
Hour 1
Textile Pop ArtTask 2• Complete your Pop Art Design sheet with the addition of
some Textile Samples that are linked to your Design work – Consider which techniques will work best for the type of design you are trying to create.
Task 3• Produce a front and back drawing of your intended
waistcoat design – INCLUDE decorative features. • Label to explain techniques to be used.
Hour 2/3
Pattern Making
Aim: Use pattern block to create own paper pattern piece
Hour 4
Cutting Line
Sewing Line
Notches
Grain Line
Darts
Fold Line
Use the pattern block you have been given to create your own paper pattern – you may want to adapt shape/size of certain areas to match your design.
Label your pattern pieces using the appropriate markings
Production - decoration
• Use the pattern pieces you made last lesson to cut your fabric to correct shape and size.
• You need both outer waistcoat pieces AND lining waiscoat pieces.
Hour 5-6
Aim: Cut fabric accurately, apply decoration effectively
Front right pieceX1 outerX1 lining
Front left pieceX1 outerX1 lining
Back pieceX1 outerX1 lining
Cut on the fold of the fabric
When all pieces have been cut out, begin decoration of panels.
Theory - Prototypes
Folens Unit 13: Testing and Prototypes
1. A design team will make a protoype of a new product. What is a prototype?
2. Discuss the value of making a prototype.3. It is important that products are tested during the design process.
Describe ways in which the product can be tested before the item is mass produced.
4. Explain the difference between mass production and making of a prototype.
5. Explain how computer technology might help reduce time spent protyping.
6. Explain what the term ‘Toile’ refers to.
Hour 7 Aim: Understand prototyping and production methods in industry
1. Complete Decoration BEFORE constructing waistcoat.
2. Sew shoulder seams together (Right sides together) Do this for the outer pieces and then the lining pieces.
3. Open up the pieces and lay the outer section over the lining section (Right sides together). Sew around the edges, leaving the side seams open.
4. Cut notches into the seam allowance.
5. Turn right side out through the open side seams. Sew outer side seams together using the sewing machine, then close lining seams using ladder stitch.
Production - ConstructionHour 8-10Aim: Construction/Production of Waistcoat
Evaluation• Photograph your finished product – Front View, Back View,
Special Features/Decoration.1. Are you pleased with your work? Why/Why not?
2. Is your work of good quality? Do you think your product would last a long time? How can you Tell?
3. How could your product be improved further? What would you do differently if you were to make the product again?
4. How well did you use the time given and organise yourself?
5. Produce a plan of make (Flowchart) to explain how you made your product and where quality checks were used.
