Fabrics are not all textiles. Textiles are made of fibers.

before buying.
-The most significant item to which you should attach important is fabric. It
established the general design and appeal of your dress. Knowing the fabric’s
quality will help buyers determine whether the item will be attractive, sturdy and
long-lasting.
Insight from the lesson:

Direction: Write your reflection on the discussion above, write what you have learned
and realized as you read the lesson.
In this topic I realized and experience that making cloths and fabrics is not easy
because it needs manual labor, moreover In the modern era, one cannot overlook the
importance of fashion. In simple words, in this competitive era where everybody is
striving hard to achieve their certain goals; fashion becomes a basic necessity. It would
not be wrong to say that it is a self-realization for us that one need to keep him/herself
up-to-date as per fashion and society demands. You might be thinking what actually
fashion demands? And what is meant by self-realization? Well, this is quite simple.
Let’s Apply this:
1. Identify the two classifications of fabrics.
A. Natural Fabrics- animals and plants both provide natural fibers. As an

illustration, silkworms produce silk while plants produce cotton.
B. Man-made Fabrics- made entirely of man-made synthetic materials.
2. Identity 10 common fabrics and textiles and their characteristics.
10 common fabrics and their characteristics
1. Cotton- pure cellulose and made out of cotton plant’s seed hair. Cotton fiber is a
fluffy staple fiber of half to two inches long and composed of concentric layers.
2. Kapok- is the name of tree. It is called silk cotton or java cotton. Cotton like fluff
obtained from its seed pods.
3. Hemp- super fiber is obtained from herbaceous. It made of cannabis sativa fiber.
4. Flax- one of the oldest textiles/fibers. Made from flax is called linen.
5. Jute- is a type of textile fiber made from the jute plant.
6. Ramie- is an eco-friendly fabric and the highly sustainable fiber is an alternative
to synthetic fabrics.
7. Alpaca- is one of the most prized natural fibers in the world. Extremely soft, light
weight and durable material.
8. Mohair- animal hair fiber obtained from the angora goat. Its composed chiefly of
the protein substance keratin.
9. Vicuna- fiber from the llama which is native to the Andres Mountains of South
America. It is more expensive and rarer than cashmere and it a very luxurious
fabric.
10. Silk- only major natural filament yarn. It produced by Mulberry silkworm in the
construction of its cocoon.
10 common textiles and their characteristics

1. Apparel textiles, which includes fabric used for making fashion wear,
2. Household textiles which include Table linen, bed sheets, toweling etc.
3. Industrial Textiles, used for making filters, medical textiles, geo textile etc.
4. Consumer textiles which include fabric for making sleeping bags, bags.
5. Furnishing textiles includes that are used for curtains, upholstery, wall coverings etc.
6. Knitting -This is a process in which loops of fibers are interlocked to form the
fabric.
7. Felting – This is a process which makes use of heat, pressure and moisture
and adhesives to interlock fibers to produce the fabric
8. Weaving – This is a process in which warp fibers (threads that is lying along
the length of the fabric) and weft fibers (threads that are lying along the width
of the fabric) are interlaced to form the fabric.
9. Non-woven methods – The fabric is made directly without knitting or weaving
with the fibers held together with gum, resin, heat and pressure, or needle
punching. The processes include Felted, Spun-Bonded, Film Tufted, Needle
punched, Spun-Laced Foam and Stitch-Bonded
10. Braiding – Fibers are twisted and braided – some trimmings are made this
way
Knotting and interlacing – Fibers are knotted at intersections interlaced and
interloped to form an open mesh fabric. Lace is an open work fabric made by
looping plaiting or twisting thread by means of a needle or a set of bobbins; this
includes fabrics made by crochet. Fishing nets, macramé etc. are other
examples.
3. Distinguish the differences between the qualities of fabric from textiles and their
uses.
Fabrics is the most common used for clothes than textile. Fabric made through
sewing, weaving and stitching techniques while textile uses woven fibers. Fabric
made from long primary fibers that are normally higher quality because they are turn
into a fine yarn. This is why fabric are more strong and durable. The long of fibers is
important for the softness of the material. Long fibers are woven evenly into fabric
but with short fiber their ends finished uncleanly. Fabric is common made with soft,
natural and pure, textile is thin. Fabric are less in breathable than other so that some
air pockets is tiny. Breathability is essential for fabric and textile to around pleasant
sweating and air pockets. Trolled cotton that need to be woven very tightly is one
way to have breathability.
Reflection
Now that you have finished reading Module I, it is time for you to reflect on the topic.
What was your best learning experience while doing Module I.?
I have learned a lot of knowledge and to know about clothing selection, on how to
purchase and carrying cloths. Always remember that clothing are important in our daily
lives, can insulate against cold or hot conditions, and it can provide a hygienic barrier,
keeping infectious and toxic materials away from the body. It can protect feet from injury
and discomfort or facilitate navigation in varied environments. Clothing also provides
protection from ultraviolet radiation. In module 1, discussed about textiles and fabrics.
Textiles products play a vital role in meeting mans basic needs. We often only consider
textiles to be the clothes we wear. Fabrics is foundationally important in creating
silhouette and aesthetics. The structure of a textile, woven or knitted, comprises unique
qualities that help determine the shape of the final design.
