B. PRESENTATION /INTERACTION

MARKING TOOLS
 Marking tools are required for transferring pattern markings to garment fabric pieces and
for making alterations on garments.

1) Chalk Pencil - This is available in white or pastel shades. This chalk pencil is used to
make fine lines on fabric. It has an erasing brush at one end.
2) Liquid Marking Pen- Liquid marking pens come in two types. There is one that washes
out and one that fades after 48 hours. Those that wash out should not be used on fabric
that show water marks. The mark should be removed before pressing the fabric.
3) Tailor’s Chalk- This is essential as a marker for use on materials. Tailor‘s chalk is
available in a range of colors and is removed by brushing.
4) Wax Chalk - This is available in black or white and is used for woolen fabrics. Wax can
be removed by pressing.
5) Tracing Wheel- There are two types of tracing wheels, those with a serrated edge and
those with a smooth edge. The serrated edge wheel produces dots on the fabric and is
suitable for most types of fabrics. The smooth edge wheel is best for delicate fabrics and
unlike the serrated edge will not pierce more delicate fabrics. The smooth edge wheel
creates a solid line.
6) Dressmaker’s carbon paper - Dressmaker‘s carbon paper also called dressmaker‘s tracing
paper is a specially waxed carbon paper that transfer‘s the tracing wheel‘s markings to
the fabric. A color of tracing paper should be chosen that is close to the color of the
fabric. Different brands of tracing paper have different instructions; therefore, the
instructions for the particular brand that is purchased should be followed.

PINNING AND SEWING TOOLS

1) Straight Pins- A pin consisting of a short straight stiff piece of wire with a pointed end;
used to fasten pieces of cloth or paper together.
2) Pin Cushion- A pincushion holds the straight pins and needles while working to prevent
accidents.
3) Hand Needle - Used in making stitches and buttonholes. Sizes of 7 to 10 are for general
hand sewing.
4) Sewing Needle Threader - It aids in putting the thread through the needle. It consists of
two parts. The handle and the wire. The end of the wire that is away from the holder is
folded. Place the folded wire of the needle threaded through the eye of the sewing needle.
5) Thimble- A small hard pitted cup worn for protection on the finger that pushes the needle
in sewing. 
MATERIALS IN DRESSMAKING
1) Thread- The thread is used in assembling or constructing the parts of the garment.
Threads vary in sizes. Heavy fabrics need stronger threads. Threads should have the same
color with that of the fabric used.
2) Fabric- the Fabric is the cloth used in making garments. The plain cotton fabrics, flour
sack or catcha is the most appropriate material for beginners because these are very easy
to handle.

C. PERFORMANCE/INTEGRATION

Directions: The class will be divided into (3) groups. Each group will present their
activity. They will be asked to explain each tool and material given to them and
demonstrate its proper usage

Group 1: Demonstrate and explain the uses of marking tools in dressmaking.

Group 2: Demonstrate and explain the uses of sewing tools in dressmaking.
Group 3: Demonstrate and explain the uses of pinning tools and materials in
dressmaking.
