ASSEMBLE GARMENT PARTS FOR LADIES SKIRT

In this lesson, the students will learn how to assemble ladies skirt part by

desirable attitudes, good work habits, and safety precautions in sewing.

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.

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, zipper, pockets, and waist
bands. Mastery is achieved with constant practice
Steps in Assembling Skirt

1. Zigzag the raw edges. Stay Stitch the waistline ¼ of an inch. (.7cm)
above the waistline’s sewing in line markings. . If you do not have an

8
 over-edging machine to finish the raw edges of the different skirt parts,
finish the raw edges of side seams and back center seam by folding the
edge by ¼ of an inch. Or 0.7cm. 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.

2. Stitch the front and back darts. 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.

3. Sew the distance between the break and the slits of the back skirt. 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 a 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.

9
4. Attach the Zipper.
Place the back part of the skirt in an upside-down position. Topstitch the
left part of the break. Fold both sides of the zipper allowance on the
main part of the back skirt. Measure ½ from the left side and from the
top. Keep the zipper face down on the skirt, keep right side up. Then
hand baste the top portion of the fold with reinforced basting to keep it
in place.

5. Attach the pocket.

Attach the facing on the lower position of the pocket one at a
time. Pin the pocket on the extended facing of the front skirt and sew
following the slanting line.
