  • Tailoring Series TECHNIQUES for TAILORING UNDERLINING a TAILORED GARMENT—Underlining Is a Second Layer of Fabric. It Is Cut By
    tailoring series TECHNIQUES FOR TAILORING UNDERLINING A TAILORED GARMENT—Underlining is a second layer of fabric. It is cut by the garment pattern pieces and staystitched to the wrong side of the corresponding outer sections before any seams are joined. The two layers are then handled as one. As a general guide, most suit jackets and coats look more pro- fessional when underlined. Underlining is especially recommended for lightweight wool materials, loosely woven materials and light- colored materials. For additional information on selecting fabrics for underlining and applying the underlining, see Lining a Shirt 01' Dress HE 72, N. C. Agricultural Extension Service. STAYSTITCHING—Staystitch all outer garment pieces before construction begins. If garment is underlined, stays-titching is done when the two layers of fabric are sewn together. Staystitch 1/3 in. outside seamline (on the seam allowance). Stay- stitch “ with matching cotton thread on all curved *areas that may stretch during construction such as necklines, side seams, shoulder seams, armholes, and side seams of skirt. Use directional stitching always to prevent stretching of fabric and to prevent one layer of fabric from riding. The direction to stitch is indicated by small arrows on the pattern on the seamlines. INTERFACINGS—Select a high quality hair canvas for the front and collar of coats and jackets. The percentage of wool indicates the quality—the higher the wool content of the canvas the better the quality. Since a high percentage of wool makes the hair canvas fairly dark in color, it cannot be used successfully under light-colored fabrics. In these cases use an interfacing lighter in color and lower in wool content.

If the machine runs hard at any time, IT IS CERTAIN that someplace has not been oiled. Oil holes will be found for all bearings which cannot be reached without them. Each place requiring oil is indicated by an arrow head in the cuts on the opposite page. The shuttle should be oiled sparingly, but often, if the machine is in constant use ; always be careful to use no more oil than is needed, a single drop being sufficient at any point. If the machine runs hard after standing idle for some time, use a little kero- sene oil or benzine on the wearing points, run rapidly, zvi~e clean, and then oil with the BEST slerni oil, which should always be used. To make sure of getting good oil, buy it at at any of the Company's offices or from its authorized representatives. The genuine oil is put up in bottles which have The Singer Manufacturing Company's " trade-mark " blown in their panel, and bear the Company's label.

Words to Know lengthwise fold double fold even plaid partial fold repeat uneven plaid crosswise fold Gathering Information Following the correct pattern layout will help ensure that your garment is cut out on- grain.

  • Basic Parts of a Sewing Machine
    PARTS OF A SEWING MACHINE Don't let all the wizbangery of modern sewing machines scare you off. Basic sewing is simple. You'll be surprised at what you can accomplish with just an afternoon of practice. Today's sewing machines maximize your sewing experience with their ease of operation, and professional results. The parts of a sewing machine are easy to identify. I can get out my pointer if you'd like. Models and makes of sewing machines differ in layout and features, but the basic parts are similar. Your machine's manual should show a detailed diagram of your specific model. If you don't have a manual, check the manufacturer's website. Often, manuals can be found online and downloaded. Consult your machine's manual for specific instructions on use and care. PARTS OF A SEWING MACHINE 1. Spool pin: Holds a spool of thread. 2. Bobbin winder spindle: Bobbin is placed here during winding. 3. Bobbin winder stopper: Stops winding the bobbin when it reaches capacity. 4. Stitch width dial: Controls the width your stitch. It is used to create a zigzag stitch. 5. Pattern selector dial: Turn the pattern selector dial to set the symbol of the desired stitch pattern. On computerized machines, stitches are usually selected on a menu screen. 6. Hand wheel: The large knob on the right side of your machine. Manually raises and lowers the needle. 7. Stitch length dial: Controls the length of the stitch. Shorter stitches for finer fabrics, longer for heavier fabrics, basting and gathering. 8. Reverse stitch lever: The machine will sew in reverse while the lever is pushed.

    Bobbin Lace 101 Introduction Welcome to bobbin lacemaking! Bobbin lace is an art form that originated in 15th cen- tury Europe. Today, hobbyists around the world continue the tradition. Bobbin lace is a type of off-loom weaving. We use bobbins to manipulate the thread and to keep ten- sion on the work. As it is made, the lace is secured to a pillow with pins to provide structure and support. There are many different styles of bobbin lace with widely dif- fering appearances. Today we will begin to learn Torchon lacemaking. Torchon is a coarse, strong, continuous, grounded lace characterized by geometric patterns, and it is Lacemaking beaver from The Hunting of the Snark usually worked on a 45° grid.
