I agree, my designs are not great and I think I should redo one of them but times running out:s-smilie:
Yeah mine are not that great either, I done well in my coursework so hoping that will bring it up. I don't have much time to revise for textiles :frown:

the exam isn't usually that bad, last year 87 out of 120 was an A and 95 was an A*, and some of it is just common sense. I'm probably just going to do a few practice questions from the revision guide or something.
lasts years exam was more common sense than anything else

I've only got today to revise so trying to cram as much as possible! Doesn't help that Geography is on the same day, to be honest. I don't mind the theme - I've used inspiration of robots/planets and I think they're pretty good. Good luck to everyone! :smile:

Hopefully these help you out! Also, my textiles teacher is a gem and made a pinterest board with lots of helpful bits relevant to the theme, take a look: https://www.pinterest.com/misscollina/gcse-textiles-exam-prep-2015/

Two smaller ones on one page are initial designs, I chose to develop the first one which is the separate image. Those are all the annotations (although messy and not exactly how I will do them - better vocab/structures). My teacher marked these as an A* full marks :smile:

Yeah I have Geography and Textiles too. Robots and Planets seems like a good idea.
For Geography(I AM guessing that you are doing Edexceel too)what do you think that the nine marker will be? Any predictions????
Good luck! x
urgh i dont know how to revise effectively for textiles......

Have a look at the pinterest I linked - it's like a giant moodboard of ideas! How about something galaxy orientated - you could use phosphorescent or holographic fabrics which are both smart/technical textiles to bring up your marks! I know the feeling, don't worry I'm sure you'll do great :smile:
