About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Short Methods: A Treatise on Cutting, Designing Manufacturing Men's Clothing Drafting requires exactness. A pattern should never be cut in haste. Every measurement should be applied and each line drawn as though the entire pattern or set of patterns depended upon it along The slightest error may ruin many valuable yards of cloth. Again, set of patterns should be put in use until thoroughly tested: that is, one or more garments made from them to see that they make up properly. Errors are easily made but are also easily corrected if corrected in time. The seam edges should be measured and compared to see that the garment will join up properly. On some classes of work one seam edge should be longer than the other. A seam to be joined on a Union Special Felling machine or similar machine should be from one-eighth to one-quarter inch longer on the under side than on the top to allow for the take-up of the feed. For the same reason a bias seam edge that is to be joined to a straight one should be cut from one-eighth to one-quarter inch shorter because the bias edge will stretch. A like principle applies to the different weight fabrics. A thick corduroy requires much more allowance for make-up than a light weight serge or worsted. These should t be cut from the same pattern. There should be at least one-half inch difference between them to insure the same results. Generally, corduroys are cut on a much larger scale than the lighter weight fabrics. Careful attention to these little points at the proper time will avoid many difficulties in regard to twisted garments and short sizes.
