It often makes a person nervous especially if the fabric is expensive. The thing to remember is to proceed without haste, study your pattern guide sheet, and take into account all indications on the pattern pieces themselves. THE EQUIPMENT: Assemble everything you need: cutting surface (large table or cutting board), shears, tape measure, yardstick, pencil, pins and pincushion, fabric, pattern. PREPARING THE PATTERN: Pick out the pattern pieces you will use (depending on what "View" of garment you have selected on envelope). Smooth out pieces with a warm, dry iron, if necessary. Make pattern alterations, if any. Small pieces, if printed together, must be cut apart. Grain Line Marks, to serve their purpose properly, must extend the entire length of pattern pieces. Use yardstick and pencil, extend grain line arrows on printed pattersn. Selecting Your Pattern Layout: On your pattern guide sheet, locate and circle your pattern layout: for the selected view of your garment, for your pattern size, fabric width, and fabric either "With Nap" or "Without Nap." Fabrics that are "Without Nap" have no up or down direction in design, weave, or texture, and may be cut with pattern pieces facing in either direction. Fabrics "With Nap" must be cut with tops of all pattern pieces facing the same way. A true napped fabric (wool broadcloth, flannel, camel's hair, etc.) looks best with nap running toward hem of garment. A pile fabric (velvet, corduroy, etc.) has a richer color with the pile running toward top of garment. THE FOLD IN THE FABRIC: 1. If your fabric fiber demands it you will have shrunk the fabric and straightened its cut ends. Press out any wrinkles. Press out center fold to make sure it does not leave a mark. If fold cannot be pressed out, you will have to avoid it as you lay out the pieces. 2. Fabric is almost always folded right sides together for cutting. It is cut right side out of it has a design that must be taken into account and that does not show through to the wrong side (printed corduroy, bonded fabrics). 3. Never let fabric hang over the edge of cutting surface, ARRANGING PATTERN PIECES: 1. If you have bought the correct yardage, as given on pattern envelope, a trill layout will not be necessary. 2. You should be guided by the layout you have circled. 3. When, on a layout, a pattern piece is shown extending beyond a fold line cut out the other pieces, then open out remaining fabric to cut this one. 4. When half of a pattern piece is drawn with a broken line, it means that the piece is a half-pattern, to be cut on a fold. 5. Place pattern piece on fabric - to position grain line, measure distance frooa,one end of extended grain line to salvage; pin pattern through grain line. Pin through other end of grain line at same distance: then through center of line. 6. Smooth pattern out from grain line and pin at opposite corners, then at opposite sides. Keep pins Inside cutting line of pattern and don't use too many - they can distort the cutting line. REMEMBER: 1. Cut exactly outside the cutting line on a pattern. 2. Keep fabric and pattern flat on table. 3. Cut with long strokes. 4. Always cut around notches. 32" 1 36" I 39" 41" 45" 50" 52" 1 7/8 1 3/4 ' 1 1/2 1 1/2 1 3/8 1 1/4 1 1/8 2 1/4 2 1 3/4 T3A 1 5/8 ^1/2 1 3/8 2 1/2 2 1/4 2 2 1 3/4 1 5/B 1 l/2 2 3/4 2 1/2 2 1/4 2 l/4 2 l/8 1 3/4 1 3/4 3 1/8 2 7/8 21/2 2 1/2 2 1/4 2 1 7/8 3 3/8 3 1/8 2 3/4 23/4 2 1/2 TT7T~ 2 3 3/4 3 3/8 I 3 2 3/4 2 3/8 2 1/4 4 3 3/4 I 3 1/4 3 1/8 2 7/8 2 5/8 23/8 TW" 4 1/4 3 1/2 TIT 3 1/8 2 3/4 2 5/8 4 5/8 4 1/2 I 3 3/4 3 5/8 3 3/8 3 2 3/4 5 . 4 3/4 4 3 775" 3 5/8 ~3 l/4 2 7/8 5 1/4 5 | 4 1/4 4 1/8 3 7/B 3 3/6 3 1/8 Personals Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Harris will leave today for a visit with their son and family, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Harris and son Jeffrey, in Cincinnati, Ohio.
