Pattern making

Correct answer: A. Because pattern can also show cultural identity and plan of use

The governing concept is that a textile pattern has decorative, communicative, and functional roles. Repeated shapes, colours, symbols, and arrangements can identify a region, community, festival, occupation, or tradition. Pattern can also guide how cloth is divided, bordered, joined, worn, or used, so it contributes to structure and purpose as well as beauty. Option A is correct because it includes cultural identity and planning of use. Option B denies the visible nature of pattern, while option C contradicts the meaning of textile art. Option D is also incorrect: a well-designed pattern usually organizes and enriches a textile rather than destroying it.

Correct answer: A. Create decoration and boundary

The governing concept is repetition used to organise and decorate a design. When a small shape is repeated at regular or planned intervals around an edge, it can form a pattern, frame, or border. Such a border marks the boundary of the design, gives the surface a finished appearance, and adds rhythm and decoration. Therefore option A is correct. A well-planned border may support the main subject, although its weight and spacing must be controlled. Option B is wrong because a border does not automatically remove the main subject. Option C is impossible as a visual function, and option D has no sound design meaning. The effect depends on scale, spacing, alignment, and contrast; repetition should be consistent enough to look organised without becoming distracting.

Correct answer: A. Emphasis or visual surprise

Repeated shapes establish a visual expectation. A sudden change contrasts with that repetition and can attract attention, creating emphasis or visual surprise. It may interrupt the pattern, but it does not necessarily end the whole design.

Correct answer: A. It can make a static pattern feel dynamic

Rotating a shape changes its orientation, not its basic form. Varying the direction of repeated shapes can introduce movement and energy, making a pattern that feels static seem more dynamic. The effect depends on the arrangement and degree of rotation.

Correct answer: A. One object is in front of or behind another

The governing concept is overlap as a depth cue in composition. When one object covers part of another, the covering object is read as nearer while the partly hidden object is read as farther away. Therefore option A is correct. Overlap does not place every object on one plane, prove that lighting is absent, or mean that the paper is transparent; those interpretations confuse spatial arrangement with unrelated properties.

Correct answer: A. Different material qualities will not be clear

The governing concept is visual texture: line quality and stroke pattern should respond to the material being shown. Identical marks make wood, metal, cloth and stone appear alike, so their surface qualities are not convincing. Option A is correct. Uniform strokes do not improve proportion, perspective or composition automatically; they mainly weaken material description.
