6R Make their mark - in DT
Please enter an introduction for your blog post here.
In 6R we have learned about traditional African printing techniques inspired by the natural world, and how they have been used to create repeating patterns.
We first designed our printing blocks, then made them using natural and man-made objects. The printing process itself was deceptively simple - you had to have a really even printing block, equal amounts of fabric paint and a really steady hand if you wanted to produce a decent print of your design.
To complete the project, we have evaluated and assessed our own work. This is also an important part of the design process.
