Debra Proctor, USU Extension Associate Professor, FCS/4-H, Wasatch County Susan Haws, USU Extension Assistant Professor, FCS/4-H, Summit County Stacey Mac Arthur, USU Extension Assistant Professor, 4-H, State Office Description The Discover 4-H Clubs series guides new 4-H volunteer leaders through the process of starting a 4-H club or provides a guideline for seasoned volunteer leaders to try a new project area. Each guide outlines everything needed to organize a club and hold the first six club meetings related to a specific project area. Purpose The purpose is to create an environment for families to come together and participate in learning activities that can engage the whole family, while spending time together as a multi-family club. Members will experiment with new 4-H project areas. What is 4-H? 4-H is one of the largest youth development organizations in the United States. 4-H is found in almost every county across the nation and enjoys a partnership between the U. S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the state land-grant universities (e.g., Utah State University), and local county governments. 4-H is about youth and adults working together as partners in designing and implementing club and individual plans for activities and events. Positive youth development is the primary goal of 4-H. The project area serves as the vehicle for members to learn and master project-specific skills while developing basic life skills. All projects support the ultimate goal for the 4-H member to develop positive personal assets needed to live successfully in a diverse and changing world. -

BThe goal of quality dart stitching is smooth, pucker-free points that don’t call attention to themselves. SHAPING A single-point dart is shaped like a triangle, and when stitched it takes a wedge of fabric out of the garment allowing for controlled fullness at the point. A single dart may be on the lengthwise fabric grain, angled or slightly curved. (1) A double-point or contour dart is diamond or rugby ball shaped, and is used to shape the waistline, leaving fullness at both ends for the bust and hip. (2) A French dart is a curved shape from the garment side seam to the bustline. This dart has cut edges joined like a seam. (3) V9082 Vintage Vogue, 1960. Misses’ A5(6-8-10-12-14) E5(14-16-18-20-22).

Lining Techniques... Made Easy
CT-MMB.004 Lining Techniques Jacket and Coat Linings Made Easy A garment lining is generally referred to and treated as a “supportive” fabric. As a rule, a lining eliminates the need for time-consuming seam finishes while lengthening the life and durability of the fashion garment. According to Kathleen Spike, noted clothing writer, “Nothing places a garment in the ‘custom’ or ‘couture’ category as distinctly as a professionally applied lining.” 1 Lining – a separate, but attached inner layer of fabric construction which conceals or covers the inside garment construction. STANDARDS OF A WELL-MADE/APPLIED GARMENT LINING A suitable lining fabric: Is compatible with garment fabric in terms of care and fiber content. It can be cleaned in the same manner as the garment. Can be either woven or knit fabric as long as it is compatible with the garment fashion fabric. Permits and accommodates the necessary “give” and recovery needed for body movement. Is firm, yet not bulky; colorfast to perspiration and body oils; absorbent or “breathable.” Is opaque so as not to see the inside construction of the garment. Matches or coordinates with the garment fashion fabric. Has a smooth surface texture to permit the garment to be taken on and off the body with ease. Weight is the same or somewhat lighter and softer than the fashion fabric so as not to dominate the fashion garment. Is preshrunk (pre-washed or dry-cleaned) prior to cutting. The completed lining: Is cut sufficiently larger than the fashion garment to provide length and width fitting ease (generally at center back, armhole, hem edge, elbow, sleeve hem, shoulder). -

AB Catalog Final.qxd 11/4/08 3:18 PM Page 1 THEHIGHESTEXPRESSIONOFCUSTOMUPHOLSTERY AB Catalog Final.qxd 11/4/08 3:18 PM Page 2 THE FOUNDERS POINT OF VIEW...ONE AT A TIME Today's younger professionals want to make a statement about who they are. They want to show that they care about their surroundings, that they are achieving their goals. When they leave the maelstrom of activity each night and return to their apartments and homes, they are seeking a peaceful haven, they want a refuge from nerve-wracking stimuli. They want to return to the luxurious world of their own individuality. Avery Boardman creates sofas, sofa beds, and custom upholstery that meet these high standards by making them one at a time. This company is the oldest firm in the world manufacturing and selling sofa beds exclusively to the design community. My philosophy is, “Being the biggest isn't as important as being the best. I think customers understand the difference and are willing to pay more for an individually-crafted piece of furniture. That's why our entire manufacturing operation promotes individuality.” I spend whatever amount of time necessary to insure that the style, the design, the comfort of each piece is perfect. At our headquarters in New Jersey, every employee has to sign off on every facet of his work. That means every cutter, every woodworker, every upholsterer has a sense of individual pride. Our pieces are constructed with kiln-dried hardwood frames that are doweled, glued and installed with the finest mechanism ever designed to house the high-coil count, inner-spring mattress. -
