Performance Evidence

Evidence required to demonstrate competence in this unit must be relevant to and satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria, and include

  • reading and following work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), safe work practices
  • applying relevant standards
  • producing storyboard or sketches to demonstrate design ideas and developing design concept
  • developing a pattern to suit design and size requirements
  • selecting and preparing fabric, materials, tools and equipment
  • using a machine to produce at least two (2) simple garments, using the same or different, fabrics, patterns or blocks
  • producing simple garments to meet identified pattern and size requirements
  • rectifying garment faults and finishing garment to meet design requirements
  • identifying improvements in garment production techniques for future production
  • cleaning work area and storing materials, tools and equipment.

Knowledge Evidence

Evidence must be provided that demonstrates knowledge of:

  • safe work practices and procedures and use of personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • relevant Australian Standards
  • components of the design process:
  • sketches
  • pictures
  • storyboard
