Lesson

3 Assemble Garment Parts for

Ladies Skirt

The quality of clothes that we are wearing is affected by the way they are constructed. Understanding the construction process will help us choose quality clothes. There are various standards on how they are being constructed either for ready-to-wear or custom-sewn clothing.

What’s In

Review

1. What are the four methods of transferring pattern markings? How each differ

from each other?

2. Why is it important to follow the guidelines in transferring of marks onto the

fabric?

3. Why procedure in assembling the ladies skirt must be followed?

What’s New

Definition of Terms:

Hemline - is the line formed by the lower edge of a garment, such as a skirt, dress or coat, measured from the floor. The hemline is perhaps the most variable style line in fashion, changing shape and ranging in height from hip-high to floor-length. is the line formed by the lower edge of a garment, such as a skirt, dress or coat, measured from the floor. The hemline is perhaps the most variable style line in fashion, changing shape and ranging in height from hip-high to floor-length. Staystitch–is a straight stitch sewn through one layer of fabric. It's most often used around a

curve to prevent distortion. This is because the curve cuts across the bias, the stretchiest part of fabric. To really see this in action, cut a curve out of some scrap fabric and then pull on it. Placket- (also spelled placquet) is an opening in the upper part of trousers or skirts, or at

the neck or sleeve of a garment. ... Modern plackets often contain fabric facings or attached

bands to surround and reinforce fasteners such as buttons, snaps, or zippers .

Yoke–is a shaped pattern piece which forms part of a garment, usually fitting around the neck and

shoulders, or around the hips to provide support for looser parts of the garment, such as a gathered skirt or the body of a shirt. Slash – A cut opening in the garment. It can be for a pocket, to insert something like a

contrasting piping, or for an opening to allow you to put the garment on.

What is It

Skirt Unit

Front

1. Stay stitch waistline on seamline from sides through center front. 2. Stitch the

darts, Slash and press open curved darts.

3. Finish the bottom edge of the facing with the side seams folded out.

Back and Side Seams

1. Stay stitch waistline on seam line from side to center.

2. Stitch darts and press toward center.

3. Stitch skirt front to back at side seams. Press seams open.

4. Connect the side seams of the skirt, except where the zipper will be attached.

A. Pressing Techniques

Before Construction Pressing can straighten grain lines and preshrink fabric,

and it eliminates wrinkles before laying on the pattern. The center crease line should

be pressed out of folded fabrics. Wrinkled tissue pattern pieces may be pressed

smooth with a warm iron as an aid to accurate cutting.

Skilful pressing may substitute for much of the basting; careful pressing of

hems and facings will save much time.

Press each piece in the construction procedure: the seams, darts or tucks,

before one piece is joined to another.

To avoid imprints of edges on right side, insert strips of paper as necessary

between garment and seam allowances, darts or pleats, and then press.

Ease or fullness may be shrunk out of some fabrics, such as wool and certain

cottons and synthetics, in order to shape a particular piece; shoulder seams, sleeves,

caps, and bust-line seems may require this treatment.

General Directions for Seams

Thoroughly smooth the stitching line of any seam by pressing before opening

the seam allowances or turning to one side.

Press straight seams over straight pads and curved seams over pressing

cushion to give them the correct shape.

Always press a seam before cross-stitching it with another seam.

Straight Seams

Press seam allowance open with tip of iron for an inconspicuous appearance.

For some construction procedures press both edges of seam to one side. The seam

may be pressed open before turning and pressing the edges to one side. This may give

a flatter line on some fabrics.

Lapped Seams

Press the turned edge of the top layer before placing it over the under-layer.

Steam press completed seams.

Curved Seams

1. Press seams with outward curves open over a seam board or near the edge of

pressing board. Press only 2” to 3” at a time. Complete the pressing over a rounded

cushion or rolled Turkish towel, taking care not to shrink or stretch the seam line.

Shrink edges of allowances to flattened seam for a better fit.

2. Clip seams with inward curves to within ¼” of stitching. Press seams open at seam

line over seam board. Do not press beyond seam line at each side.

Waistline Seams

Press seam allowances open, then press both edges together. Leave the seam

allowances open if neither bodice nor skirt is bulky at waistline seam.

Darts

1. Press dart along the line of stitching.

2. Press waistline and shoulder darts toward the center front and center back,

underarm darts toward the waistline, and elbow darts toward the wrist.

3. Clip darts which taper at both ends at the center to within ¼” of the stitching line,

press toward the center front or back of garment.

4. Press darts over a rounded cushion to shape the curve.

5. Clip darts open in heavy fabrics to within 1” of point of stitching line; press flat.

Pleats

Press pleats from hem to waistline.

Zipper Plackets

1. Place the garment at the right side down over a well-padded surface such as a

Turkish towel.

2. Place a pressing cloth over a placket. Hold iron lightly over placket and press from

smaller part of garment to bigger one, such as from waistline to hip.

Hem

Press a skirt hem up from the lower edge to avoid stretching. Hems may be

pressed from either side. From the right side, press over a well-padded ironing board.

(Imprint will not come through to right side.) Use a heavy pressing cloth. Hems will lie

flatter if fullness is shrunk out with steam before sewing on seam tape. Curve the hem

tape for a flared skirt by stretching the outer edge as the tape is pressed in a circle.

Procedure in Assembling Ladies Skirt

The sequencing for the unit method of construction of the different parts of the

skirt will be basically the same for all skirt types. It is a must, that one should master

the steps in attaching the seams, zippers, pockets, and waist bands. Mastery is

achieved with constant practice.

How to Prepare the Basic Straight Skirt and Basic A-Line Skirt for Sewing

Construction

1. Stay Stitch the waistline ¼ of an inch (.7cm.) above the waistlines sewing line

markings. This is done so that the part which is curved will not stretch due to

handling since the edge of the waistline will not be finished.

2. If you do not have an over-edging machine to finish the raw edges of the

different skirt parts, finish the raw edges of the side seams and back center

seam by folding the edge by ¼ of an inch (or 0.7 cm.). Machine stitch on the

fold. The edge of the waistline need not be finished for this will be covered with

a waistband. The edge of the hemline may be finished after the side seams and

zipper seams have been sewn together.

3. Fold the dart on the center line, and join the outer lines with pins. Sew

together. Start sewing from the top of the dart allowance to the bottom. Leave

tails of threads at the bottom. Knot these together around three times to

prevent the stitches from unraveling. Since the dart is a vanishing line, it is not

advisable to lock stitch the end of the dart for this will not achieve a fine point.

4. Pin the center back together. Leave unpinned where the zipper will be attached.

Get an 8 inch (20cm.) zipper. If you want a slit at the bottom of the skirt, leave

this unpinned, too. Machine sew the center back together and where slit is.

Lock both ends by back stitches so that machine sewing will not unravel.

5.Fold both sides of the zipper allowance on the main part of the back skirt. Then

hand baste the top portion of the fold with reinforced basting to keep it in place.
