hey, just like to share with you people that a new first edition textile for hsc and Preliminary are out! Our school purchase it and we get to used it and take it home. however im plannning to buy one so i can use it at home for study etc and dont want to carry it around.
It is called "Textiles and Design: Preliminary and HSC" by Christine Castle and Lynda Peters.

here a little summary i got from elitebooks.com.au (you can buy the textbook here online which cost $47.65 or the school could purchase it in bulk and get discount. Just some suggestion)

"This new Textiles and Design: Preliminary and HSC is the long awaited new text for senior Textile student in NSW. Written by two of the state's leading teachers, Christine Castle and Lynda Peters. This text provides detailed information on every aspect of the Preliminary and HSC syllabus. The only text of its kind available and features fresh case studies and a beautiful, highly visual design.
Features:

• complete coverage of the three major topics for both Preliminary and HSC: Design Properties and Performance of Textiles, The Australian Textile, Clothing, Footwear and Allied Industries
• integrated and end-of-chapter activites
• contemporary case studies
• A complementary website "

Really excited about this since its the first time that textile have a textbook guide. We have a look at it today and the information was just stunning. it was properly summerise with all fibres, yarns and fabric and have different techniques that could used for the major project!!!!!

Enjoy!
