The planning and execution of the PAT differ from subject to subject.  During the practical assessment task the learner must demonstrate his/her knowledge and practical ability/skills to produce quality articles focusing on workmanship and suitability for selling.  The practical assessment task for Consumer Studies for Grade 12, with the Patchwork Quilting by Hand practical option, consists of a practical examination of FIVE (5) HOURS.  Breakdown of the FIVE (5) hours: o Layout and cutting session: ONE-HOUR session (prior to the practical examination) o Learners should be able to complete this article within the prescribed time of FOUR (4) hours  Learners work individually during the practical examination for the PAT.  The practical examination for the PAT takes place in Term 3. 2. MARK ALLOCATION  The total allocation of marks for the PAT is 100 marks.  The marks for the PAT form part of the end-of-year assessment in Term 4.  The province will provide separate computerised mark sheets, one for SBA and one for PAT.

Accuracy with measurements is important. STEP 2: Sewing the strips together  Sew one strip of plain fabric to one strip of patterned fabric along a long edge ensuring that you maintain a 0,5 cm seam allowance (right sides facing).  Maintain an accurate seam allowance.  Then sew another length of plain fabric along the other long edge of the patterned fabric.  Press your seam allowances open with a hot iron (do not use any steam).  Repeat this process with the other three strips to form a piece of fabric.  Again, press the seam allowances open. STEP 3: Cut the strips  Take each piece of fabric in turn and fold it so that you can cut strips that contain all three fabric strips.  Place the fold along a horizontal line on the cutting board.  Use the rotary cutter to cut a square end into the fabric.  Measure 12 cm and cut again. (Make three strips of fabric that alternate in fabric). Copyright reserved Please turn over

CONCLUSION On completion of the practical assessment task, learners should be able to demonstrate their understanding of the industry, enhance their knowledge, skills, values and reasoning abilities as well as establish connections to life outside the classroom and address real-world challenges. The PAT furthermore develops learners' life skills and provides opportunities for learners to engage in their own learning. Copyright reserved
