What do textile designers do?
Textile designers create the designs and patterns that are reproduced on fabrics and other commercial products. Most commonly, the work of textile designers is used to create textile products that go into the production of clothing, upholstery, linens, rugs, carpeting, and other fabric-based products. Professional textile designers also work in the paper products industry, creating the artwork seen on wrapping paper, greeting cards, wallpaper, and various types of packaging.
