Open weaves are not suited to stitching but can be used for clamping and wrapping. Minimum requirement 3 metres of silk and of cotton fabric total (i.e., not 3 meters of each) It is always advisable to bring more than you think you will need. This amount can be made up of different weights and types of fabric, but remember that longer lengths are also needed.

Syzygium cumini (L.) leaves extract was extracted through soxhlet method and was applied on cotton fabric by using pad dry cure process. Phytochemical analysis of S. cumini (L.) leaves extract indicated presence of tannin, flavonoids, saponin and phenols and exhibited antibacterial activity against gram-positive bacteria with zone of inhibition of (6.0 – 11.16 mm for B. subtilis and 4.83 -10.0 mm for S. aureus) and sun protective property with 23.91 – 25.01 SPF value at different Original Article Article Original concentrations. Cotton fabric finished with S. cumini (L.) leaves extract exhibited improvement in bacterial resistance with per cent reduction in the bacterial count of the finished fabric by 95.67% for S. aureus and 94.70% for B. subtilis as well as exhibited high UPF value (48.1), providing excellent protection when compared to untreated control fabric.

Santa Fe, New Mexico 2015 Proceedings Simply String Art Carol Beard, Central Michigan University, USA Key Words: String art, surface design Purpose: Simply String Art was inspired by an art piece at the Saint Louis Art Museum. I was intrigued by a painting where the artist had created a three dimensional effect with a string art application over highlighted areas of his painting. I wanted to apply this visual element to the surface of fabric used in apparel construction. The purpose of this piece was to explore string art as unique artistic interpretation for a surface design element. I have long been interested in intricate details that draw the eye and take something seemingly simple to the realm of elegance. Process: The design process began with a research of string art and its many interpretations.

  • Placket Construction Options
    Placket Construction Options 1 Type1: Two Separate Bound Edges on a rectangular stitching box The key to this structure is that the bindings are initially stitched only to the seam allowances on each side, and NOT stitched across the end, of the clipped box, which means that they, and the clipped triangle at the bottom, remain loose and can be arranged before the nal nishing to go on either side of the fabric, as well as either over or under the other, after joining them at the sides. The widths and lengths of the bindings and the space between the sides of the clipped box determine all the other options available in this most exible of all the placket types I know of. Variation 1: Both bindings t inside the stitching box If you cut the bindings so the nished, folded widths of both are equal to or smaller than the space between the initial stitching lines, as shown above, you can arrange both ends at the clipped corners to all go on one side of the fabric (right or wrong side), along with the clipped triangle on the garment. You’ll get the best results if the underlapping binding is slightly smaller than the overlapping one. This can be man- aged by taking slightly deeper seam allowances when you join this piece, so they can initially be cut from the same strip. Or, you can place one end on each side with the Both ends on RS One end on RS, Both ends on WS triangle sandwiched in between.
