This is really inspiring at the moment my a level teacher keeps making us make flowers it's getting really annoying XD

[@RosieCrawford]

Hahaahahaha what's your topic and also which technique for the flowers lool 😂❤❤

[@heythere1257]

@@RosieCrawford i think our topic is nature & magnification but she's letting us experiment at the moment with different fabric techniques so its not tooo bad? But eh 😅

[@RosieCrawford]

@@heythere1257 experimenting is what you want! Just make sure it is experimental and not perfect u know???

[@heythere1257]

@@RosieCrawford okay :)

[@ayla5613]

I'm not sure whether to do it because it doesnt seem very academic which I've always been expected to do. Also I have gcse art but have actually never see although I love fashion!

[@farahmirza1264]

Like can I get away with jus using mixed media and fashion design?

[@elsaritchie7949]

What did you do for your EPQ (What question?) And do you recommend taking it? I do A level art (fine art) and i find your work so inspiring and i love the ideas that you have! I'm in first year of sixth form, and i really am enjoying it at the moment. I'm interested in possibly applying for anthropology too so any advice you have would be great (:

[@RosieCrawford]

My title was "what can we learn about the Iron age Britons from Greek and Roman sources and is it valid?" Xxxxxx

[@RosieCrawford]

Yay for anthropology!!!

[@elsaritchie7949]

@@RosieCrawford Wow! Thank you so much for replying so quickly! I'm thinking of possibly including a bit of history of art into my EPQ if it works alongside anthropology and archeology as it is a subject i'm taking as an a level which i believe can be pushed in many directions. :)

[@RosieCrawford]

@@elsaritchie7949 oooo yes sounds interesting!

[@farahmirza1264]

To what level does one need to be good at drawing? Do you recommend it to a creative that isn’t necessarily good at drawing?

[@RosieCrawford]

For the A and A* grades in the Art and Design branch of textiles drawing skill is definitely needed as far as how ours were marked. There's just textiles without the art which I'm sure needs less drawing skill x

[@farahmirza1264]

Rosie Crawford thank You !

[@babywithahammer]

how much experience does one need to do textiles a level? i didn’t do GCSE textiles because my school didn’t offer it but i really want to do it for a level :( really helpful video!

[@RosieCrawford]

Heeey it's all about having a creative flair really! I wouldn't say experience helps much other than knowing how to use a sewing machine, how to stitch & some techniques. You learn on the job though and with some extra sessions practising sewing after school f.e. You should be fine! I will say that i did stay after sixth form until 5/6pm a LOT to keep producing a standard of work that i was happy with. It's a lot more work than it's given credit for and takes a lot of time management but it was super fun & I loved it.

[@babywithahammer]

Rosie Crawford thank you so much for replying so quickly! :) i was nervous that you needed to be an expert or something haha. your sketchbook is amazing and really inspiring!

[@joshuaafonso7934]

What are the requirements to get into a level textiles

[@666Blush]

joshua afonso there different for every school it depends on what type of student they are trying to attract

[@michaela1541]

do you need to be good at art to take this qualification as i’ve never done gcse art nor textiles however i make my own clothes at home. do you have any tips on how i can get ahead xx

[@RosieCrawford]

Art textiles is a very artsy subject, but making stuff was a key part. Artist research and recreation was also key but you could always find artists and designers that fit your style and take inspiration from them

[@michaela1541]

@@RosieCrawford thank you!

[@joshuacadman7653]

What other a levels did you do?

[@RosieCrawford]

Geography, sociology, general studies and EPQ :)
