About the BFDI-072 assignment
The BFDI-072 assignment covers pressing in garment manufacturing and the distinction between direct drafting and pattern making. It asks students to explain garment-production techniques and use a diagram to support a comparison.
There are two compulsory questions, each carrying 10 marks, for a total of 20 marks. The assignment has a 10% weightage. Illustrations and diagrams may be used to support explanations, and the second question specifically requires a diagram.
