From the perspective of the finished products simulation, the paper studied the functions of 3DsMax and Photoshop in creating the simulation effect of home textile. On the basis of comparing and analyzing the simulation forms available, the paper puts forward the plan of simulating maps by the method of lattice offered by Photoshop. By comparing and studying the two soft wares, the paper puts forward the plan to use the both of them to simulate the home textile in the hope that it will contribute to the development of computer aided fabric design system in China and benefit numerous medium sized and small home textile enterprises.

Market has an urgent desire to the talent designers of plain fabric. The essay introduces the CDIO (Conceive, Design, Implement and Operate) standard, CAI (Computer Aided Instruction) and establishing the network education platform in plain fabric design course. It uses the theory and practice education model to reform the aspects that it should make an effort to develop the high-quality design talents who adapt to the modern engineering team, new products and the new development demands.
