Dear Parents,
The Schools Division of Calamba City is one with every Filipino family in coping with the
demands of our modern times amidst Covid–19 Pandemic.
The Division initiated Self Learning Module (SLM) aims to meet the most essential learning
competencies required to be learned by your child whether your child opts for online, modular or
blended learning modality. The learning activities in this SLM are arranged chronologically from simple
to complex to lead your child to think critically, act skillfully, and reflect deeply on each lesson and
practice into real life skills. Most importantly, this SLM promotes self-paced learning as your child can
always review the least understood lessons as often as he/she pleases.
Thank you in advance for being one with us! Together, let us envision that, by the end of this
school year, we will see your child as one responsible young person with a heart and mind for humanity,
for nature, for the country, and for God.

Dear Learner,

1-2 PRODUCE CHILDREN’S WEAR


DRAFT AND CUT PATTERN FOR CHILDREN’S WEAR
I PLAN A GARMENT DESIGN

Clothing is one among the most important three basic needs in every human life. It
protects our body from various climates and gives us a good appearance. In this
youthful world, children are given more care for the selection of their garments.
Today children are largely exposed through various media. They themselves have
become the customers in their own rights. They also have their own definite opinions
about the clothes they wear. While developing their own styles children reveal their
own creative streaks.

The designers concentrate on simplicity, comfort and new look in designing the
children's garment.

Study the following pictures:

A. B. C.

1. How do you classified them according to their age group?

2. What do you think is the age group of picture A? B and C?

Children classification

Generally kids are grouped according to their age.

 Infant or babies
 Toddlers
 Cildren

Infant

 Babies up to two years come under this classification.


Infant's clothing is sized according their age: 3, 6, 12, 18,
24 months. During this age, the head does not correctly
stand on their neck. So, garments should be selected with
full opening. According to the seasons, the material should
be selected, ie, thick or thin. Normally soft materials with
lightweight should be selected.

4|Page
Toddlers

 Children from the age of two to eight are called as toddlers.


From the age of two, the average child loses fat until about
the age of eight. This slimming down process is very
apparent. Toddlers have very little waist shaping and
protruding stomach. These features decrease as the child
grows and loses fat.

Children

 Age groups above seven to twelve are normally said as


children. Manufactures decided to accept a 6 cm height
interval as a base for coding scheme as this approximates
to the average growth per year over this period. It is to be
noted that the range of heights for any particular age group
is larger than the amount of growth that occurs in any one
year. It is better to link other body measurements to height
rather than age.

Requirements of children's clothing

The ideal baby clothing should be:

 Soft, comfortable, easy to put on and take off and comparatively loose.
 Easy access to his/her nappy because it requires frequent changing.
 Non-flammable.
 Lightweight.
 Non-irritating.
 Underclothes should be essentially made of organic fibres.
 Allow quick transmission of sweat from skin to environment.

Characteristics of a Well-fitted Children’s Wear

Selection

When selecting clothing for young children, toddlers’ and


preschoolers’ always consider the physical characteristics and the
comfort they give to the children.

A. Toddlers
1. Look for soft, unstructured styles that allow maximum freedom of
movement, such as one-piece garments that fall from the shoulder.
These are also practical because toddlers wear diapers and have not
developed a waistline.
2. Leg openings with snaps on toddlers’ pants help make changing
diapers

5|Page
easier.
3. For necklines, select collarless styles or flat collars, such as Peter pan
and convertible collars.
4. Avoid collars that may bind or restrict movement, such as a high
button collar.
5. When toddlers are first learning to dress, pull-on garments with large
neck and armhole openings are the easiest to manipulate. Because
the toddler is always on the move.
6. Design features should be functional as well as decorative. For
example, shoulder straps should crisscross in the back to prevent
them from sliding off shoulders.
7. Shoulder tabs on shirts are another way to secure straps.

B. Preschoolers
1. Look for styles that allow preschoolers to move and jump about freely.
2. Pockets are important features because preschoolers need places for
the treasures they collect.
3. Shoulder tabs on shirts are still valuable.
4. When selecting a garment with long sleeves, avoid buttoned cuffs that
restrict movement.
5. Jumpsuits are practical garments for preschoolers because they allow
for mobility and will maintain a neat appearance.
6. Preschoolers can also wear pants and skirts with elasticized waists
because their waistlines have become more defined.

Garment classifications

Children garments are generally classified into many


categories. They are as follows:

Casuals

 Garments designed for informal occasions are termed as


casuals: They are T-shirts, knitted garments, etc. Knitted
fabrics give more freedom of movement than woven
fabrics and are ideal for casual wear. During the
movement these knitted loops helps in pumping air
through close-fitting garments, thus removing body heat
during summer. It gives pleasing appearance, loose
elastic structure, comfort and softness.

Daywear

 The fabric's selected to wore as daytime wear are cotton,


gingham, gabardine and sail doth during summer
season.
 Double knits velveteen and corduroys are selected during
winter season. Children's day garment has to be made up
with a fabric that will stand for repeated laundering, the
seams should be strong and fastenings should be
secure.

6|Page
Nightwear

 While selecting the garment it should not possess any


harmful ingredient and
 accessories, as the skin of children is very tender and
smooth. The garment selected should have good drape
and it should serve the purpose.

Partywear

 Industries focus on manufacturing luxurious garments for


children in various styles and prevailing trends. These
are also called as special
 occasion garment. Fabrics like velvet, denim, satin, etc,
are used in party wears with different styles.

Uniforms

 The uniform worn by children should be subjected to


certain treatments like antibacterial finish, etc, and it
should be free from odour.

Sportswear

 It should have freedom of movements. Knitted garments


have higher extensibility in both length and widthwise
directions. Hence, knitted materials are mostly selected as
sports wear for children. Active sports wear can be
classified as summer sports wear and winter sports wear.

High fashionwear

 Fashion in clothing has always been a reflector of change


in life style of people. A complete range with the most
luxurious look and superior comfort is an absolute must.
Greater spectrums of bright, vivid colours and designs
have become the key for the purchase of high fashioned
wear. They look only for latest fashions and these can be
worn during special occasion like parties.

Types of Fabrics Suited for Children’s Dress

Children’s safety and comfort is best considered when buying and


choosing the clothes they wear. Some people, especially mothers prefer
to buy fabrics for their children because they think it is cheaper and they
can choose the best quality fabric for them. There are varieties of fabrics
to choose from.

7|Page
1. Seersucker
A thin, all-cotton fabric, commonly striped, used
to make clothing for spring and summer wear,
suits, slacks and children’s clothing.

2. Cotton
A soft, staple fiber and brings comfort to children
because it is breathable.

3.Rayon
Usually colorful and easy to washed, e.g. blouses,
dresses, jackets, lingerie, linings, scarves, suits,
ties, hats, socks),

4. Pique
A medium weight, cotton-blend fabric which is
characterized by raised parallel cords or fine ribbing
that resembles a check. It is used to make vests,
coats, the collars of polo shirts, fitted blouses and
children’s clothes.

5. Linen
A textile made from the fibers of the flax plant. It is
labor-intensive to make, but its garments are valued
for exceptional coolness and freshness in hot
weather. It is also very absorbent, but wrinkles easily
unless blended with manufactured fibers

6. Organza
A thin, plain-weave, sheer fabric is traditionally made
from silk, the continuous filament of silkworms.
Nowadays, though many organza’s are woven with
synthetic filament fibers such as polyester or nylon,
the most luxurious organza’s are still woven in silk.

7. Silk
A natural protein fiber, some forms of which can be woven
into textiles. Silk is smooth, glossy and beautiful. It is also
strong and vulnerable to fading and stains.

8|Page
8. Tulle and Netting

starched. It can be made of various fibers, including
silk, nylon and rayon. Tulle is most commonly used for
veils, gowns (particularly)

cotton, wool or rayon, often printed with a design,
often floral. Used to make dresses, skirts and other
articles of clothing.

10. Chiffon
A lightweight, plain-woven, sheer fabric. Chiffon can
be dyed to almost any shade desired; however, if
made from polyester, it is difficult to dye. Chiffon is
most commonly used in evening wear, especially as
an overlay, giving an elegant and floating appearance
to the gown. It is also a popular fabric used in
blouses, ribbons, scarves and lingerie. Like other
crepe fabrics, chiffon can be difficult to work with
because of its light and slippery textures. It should
only be hand-washed.

Accessories and Accents for Children’s Wear

Accessories are articles that make the outfit perfect and beautiful. In
putting or choosing accessories for dresses, always consider the art
principles and elements of design. Choose accessories that will equate and go
with the age of children.

The following are the accessories used in dresses:

1. Bands – strips of fabric, ribbon or bias applied to edges or set into


garments to finish or decorate

Sleeves

Sleeves are parts of the garments that cover the arm. It may be worn short or
long. Sleeves maybe cut together with the bodice or cut separately. The
pattern and design of the sleeve connotes fashion in dress.
Sleeves constructed for adults can also be applied in children’s wear
depending on the type and kind of weather a particular dress is put on.

Kinds OF Sleeves

Kimono sleeves
is a type of
sleeves cut
together with the
bodice. There is
no seam joining at
the armhole.

10 | P a g e
Raglan Sleeves
are patterned and
cut that extend to
the shoulder neck
junctions and
cancel the
armhole seams.

Set-in Sleeves
are the foundation
of all types of
sleeves and
usually cut to fit
the armhole to the
desired length.

Puff Sleeves
come in three
variations: a) full
at the top and
bottom, b) full at
the top fitted at the
bottom, and c)
fitted at the top full
at the bottom.

Butterfly sleeves
is a type of sleeve
that flares out over
shoulder
resembling like
wings of the
butterfly

Angel sleeves
either gathered or
plain at the
shoulder tip and
taper down to the
arm.

11 | P a g e
Bell sleeves are
usually fitted at the
shoulder and
slightly taper out
like a bell at the
bottom. Can be
worn short or long
in length.

Collars

Collar is a part of a shirt, dress, coat or blouse that fastens around


or frames the neck. Among clothing construction professionals, a collar is
differentiated from other necklines such as revers and lapels. It is being
made from a separate piece of fabric, rather than a folded or cut part of the
same piece of fabric used for the main body of the garment. A revers or
rever is a garment or part of a garment that is reversed to display the lining
or facing outside.

A collar may be permanently attached to the main body of the garment

Types of Collars
 Standing or stand-up, fitting up around the neck and not lying on the shoulders.
 Turnover, standing around the neck and then folded or rolled over.
 Flat or falling, lying flat on the shoulders.

Types of Collars

Sailor collar (from midshipman), a flat


collar that comes in several shapes
in front and almost covering the
back of the wearer.

Peter Pan Collar - A flat, round-


cornered collar, named after the
collar of the costume worn in 1905
by actress Maude Adams in her
role as Peter Pan and particularly
associated with little girls' dresses.

12 | P a g e
Convertible Collar - A collar designed
to be worn with the neck button
either fastened or unfastened.

Flat collar – is sewn on the neckline


either for front only or front and
back of the neckline.

Bertha Collar - A wide, flat, round


collar, often of lace or sheer fabric,
worn with a low neckline in the
Victorian era and resurrected in the
1940s

Mandarin collar - is a short unfolded


stand-up collar style on a shirt or
jacket. Mandarin collars start at the
neckline and typically rise vertically
two to five centimeters. The style
originated from Western
interpretation of dresses worn
by Mandarins in Imperial China,
especially in Qing Dynasty, as part
of the traditional garment
of Manchu

Skirts

Skirt is a part of the garments worn around the waist. Skirts have been
in fashion for centuries, though their styles and patterns have evolved with the
time. And the best part about skirts is you can wear them at any occasion,
whether you have to dress formally or simply in casuals. Straight and pleated
skirts impart a sophisticated look to the women.

13 | P a g e
Bubble Skirt is gathered at the waist and
provided with lining to hold the hem and
gather inward the hem ends to have a full
effect.

A-line skirts
This is the basic skirt that has been
customized to a great extent. With slight
flare having rough shape of capital letter ‘A’,
it fits at the waist while slightly touching hips
and thighs; it is broader at the hem.

Flared /Balloon or Semi-


Balloon Skirts
Actually Flared skirts are A-line
skirts, but they have extra flare
which beautifully covers the fat
over hips and thighs. Women
who are thin can also try this
out in large prints as it will give
a voluptuous appearance.

Pleated Skirts
Pleated skirts appear best in
short length, just above the
knees. The flare of this skirt
is reduced by pleates and
it fits the waist. It looks nice
on both, slim and a little
plump figures.

Sheered or gathered skirt


cuts straight fabric gathered to
fit the waistline of the wearer.

14 | P a g e
Collots it is a combination of
shorts and skirts usually loose
at the bottom

Tiered skirt Tailored with two


or three layers of gathers of
graduated width

Facings and interfacings

Facings are pieces of cloth attached at the edge of the garment to


prevent from raveling, for reinforcement, for decoration, and for special
purposes.

Your guide probably tells you how to lay these pattern pieces out on the
interfacing.
 Lay the fabric pieces out on your interfacing. The wrong side of the fabric
should be against the interfacing. If you are using fusible interfacing, have
the fusible side up, toward the fabric.
 Pin the facing pieces down, and cut out the interfacing. Your facing pieces
are ready for the next step. For fusible interfacing, trim about ½″ of the
interfacing away from around the edges, then follow the manufacturer's
directions to attach the interfacing.
 For non-fusible interfacing, stitch ½″ from all the edges. Trim the interfacing
¼″ from the outside edge and close to the stitching the rest of the way
around each piece.
 If your fabric is very flimsy, and you are not sure you are laying the pieces
out flat, use the pattern pieces to cut the interfacing, then pin the interfacing
to the wrong side of the fabric pieces.

Types of Facings
 Bias facing is a piece of cloth cut 45 degrees angle and attached at the
edge of the garment especially in the curve parts like necklines and
armholes. This can be used in straight edges for decorative purposes and
reinforcement of fabric edge.
 Fitted facing is cut in the same shape as the part to be used. Either worn
inside or outside of the garment
 Straight facing is specifically cut for straight edges for smoother result.

15 | P a g e
Pockets

How many times have we seen a pocket but did not think about its technical details. A fashion
designer and a pattern master have to keep in mind about different types of pockets for
different garments the requirement of pockets changes. It is important that pocket size, shape,
and placement should complement the design of the garment. Pocket is a pouch that has a
closed end and is usually stitched on a garment or even inside the garment. Pocket can be
both functional and decorative in purpose. Pocket helps in holding small articles temporarily.

Samples of Patch Pockets

Patch Pockets are flat pockets sewn to the exterior of a garment. They are typically
unfitted, and can come in a range of shapes and sizes. Many garments are made
with patch pockets, since they are cheap and relatively easy to install when
compared to other pocket designs. It is also possible to add patch pockets to an
existing garment, should the need arise. Since patch pockets are external, they are
also potentially endlessly configurable, which can be rather convenient.

Seam pocket is
sewn on the inside
of a garment with
its pocket opening
sewn outside of the
garments.

16 | P a g e
Welt Pocket is a
small, flat pocket
that is commonly
used on the exterior
and interior breast
on a man's suit
jacket and back of
men's trousers.

MEASUREMENT 3
Children’s wear requires specific measurements that achieve the design identified
by the customers.
There is probably no sewing activity as immediately satisfying as sewing for
children. You get quick results for one thing, because the garments have smaller
dimensions. Also, more shortcuts can be taken in techniques. Children’s garments
should be constructed to survive vigorous activities and endless washings. Other
special considerations include providing room for sudden growth spurts, and
planning garments that are easy to put on.

Look at the picture below.

DRAFT BASIC/BLOCK PATTERN 4
Pattern Drafting is an important part of fashion designing and requires
tremendous skills and practice. Pattern drafting is where pattern pieces are drawn
on paper according to body measurement which becomes the base for designers
to create garments.

Pattern drafting is the process of creating a pattern by taking measurements from


a person, form, or model, in order to then create a foundation, which is a pattern
used as the basis for the design.

A Block pattern also called a Sloper is the Master or Foundation Pattern that is
used to make other patterns and other blocks. A full set of basic Blocks usually
consists of: Bodice Front & Back, Sleeve and Skirt Front & Back.

Presented here are the different tools used in pattern drafting. Name each tools by
arranging the jumbled letters.

6. Awl A handy tool and often overlooked, the awl will pierce a small hole in your
pattern to indicate the end of a dart, pocket, trim, or button hole. The awl is also
handy for scoring paper to fold, as well as “walking” your measuring tape around
curves for accurate measuring.
7. Notcher The pattern notcher will create flawless pattern markings. For example,
dart legs, seam allowance, center lines, ease, and to identify front from back
patterns.
8. Tracing wheel Pointed and very sharp wheel transfers marking onto a clean
sheet of paper. This tools is often used when retracing patterns or when transfer
draped muslin onto paper.
9. Clear Plastic Ruler Perfect for measuring seam allowances and drawing dart
legs.

CUT FINAL PATTERN

In cutting the final pattern, there are always standard procedures to be followed
to avoid mistakes in cutting the pattern which would affect the shape and style of the
blouse.
Cut pattern pieces just along the cutting lines. Use sharp shears and avoid
cutting the inside part of the cutting lines otherwise the actual measurements will be
affected.

Examine the drawing

1. How the patterns arranged to each other?


2. What are the different parts of the fabric?
3. Why back part of the garments places on the selvage part of the fabric? Why
front part places on the folded part of the fabric?

LAYING OUT PATTERN PIECES FOR LADIES BLOUSE

In laying out the pattern pieces onto the fabric, study the direction of the fibers
that are woven into the fabric. It is the grainline of the fabric. This is where the pattern
pieces are laid out.

Parts of the Woven Fabric


1. Selvage – This is the finished side edges of the fabric.
2. Lengthwise grain – This is known as the warp which runs parallel to the selvage
and the strongest grainline with least amount of stretch.
3. Crosswise grain – This is known as the weft. This runs from selvage to selvage.
4. Bias. This is the line that runs diagonally across the fabric. The true bias is always
at a 45-degree angle to the crosswise and lengthwise grains and is the fabric’s
stretchiest point.

37 | P a g e
General Layout of a Pattern
1. Follow the correct layout diagram; fold the fabric as directed and spread
squarely and smoothly on the cutting out table.
2. Lay out all the pattern pieces required to ensure that there is sufficient fabric.
3. Check the position of each piece; so that the necessary pieces are placed to
the fold and that the straight threads (or print) are parallel with the markings for
the straight thread.
4. Pin the pattern in place with the pins near the seam allowance and at the right
angles to the edges.

Laying Out Pattern Pieces for the Blouse


For One-way Fabrics
1. Lay the patterns in the same direction, main sections can be interlocked for
economy of fabric.
2. Fabric may be folded in half-lengthwise but should not be folded across the
width as this will reverse the pattern on pile.

For Checks and Striped Fabrics


1. The fabric should be folded correctly so that all lines are exactly in position one
over the other.
2. Place the pieces against the first fold and arrange the other pieces accordingly.
3. Place and join the balance marks, center and hem lines of the sections to be
identical position on the checks or stripes.

TRANSFERRING OF MARKS ONTO THE FABRIC


Before transferring the marks onto the fabric, check the correct measurements,
follow directions, and set sharp pins or make a chalk mark at the exact point indicated.
To mark cutting lines with chalk, lay your ruler or yardstick carefully on perfectly
smooth fabric, marking the line exactly from point to point. For circular cutting lines,
use tracing wheel to achieve greater accuracy in measurement.

The following markings should be carefully identified while transferring the marks onto
the fabric.
1. Notches – These are small triangular markings which are used to match fabric
pieces together.
2. Darts. Instead of drawing all the lines of a dart on your fabric, snip the ends into
the seam allowance of the fabric and mark the point with a pencil or water-or
air-soluble fabric marker.
3. Center points - This is the midpoint or center of a piece of garment, such as
collar or sleeve. Mark the fabric by snipping into the seam allowance at the
centers of your pieces.
4. Buttonhole lines. Marking buttonhole lines should be done during the sewing
stage. This is to customize button placement to get the right fit and to avoid
mistakes in marking the fabric when alteration should be done.
5. Circles, triangles, and dots. Transfer these markings wisely. Sometimes, a snip
on the notches will guide the sewer where to start the ease stitch.
6. Zipper placement. Zippers are marked on patterns with a cross-hatched line
that ends in a circle. There’s no need to transfer all the marks. Just mark the
end point or the bottom of the zipper.

Lay out and Pin patterns on fabrics
I
Following the correct pattern layout will help ensure that your garment is cut
out on grain. Pinning and cutting your garment carefully will avoid wasting fabric.
This lesson will provide the information you need to lay out, pin, and cut out your
pattern pieces.

Analyze the illustration and answer the following questions:


1.Why is laying out the pattern before cutting important?
2. How do you lay out pattern pieces?
3. How should you place the pins when pinning the pattern to the fabric?

Fabric can be folded in a variety of ways before pattern pieces are positioned for cutting.
The type of fold used depends on
• the number of pattern pieces that must be placed on a folded edge
• the fold that results in the most economic use of the fabric
• the width of the fabric
• the pattern size
Laying out your pattern on the fabric to prepare for cutting is an important step
that must be done carefully and accurately for great-looking results.

A well-sewn garment starts at the cutting table. Laying out your pattern on the
fabric to prepare for cutting is an important step that must be done carefully and
accurately for great-looking results. Here are some tips on layout and some ideas
on pinning or using weights to anchor your pattern pieces in place.

 Lay large pieces of pattern first on


the cloth
 Check that the center fold symbol fall
on the folded edge of the fabric.
 Lay out pattern for facing.

Preparing bias facing : Fold the fabric 45° . Determine the facing needed
and mark directly on the cloth

Note: Lay out the pattern pieces on the fabric assuring that the center fold
symbol is placed on the folded part of the fabric

Tips in Pinning the Pattern


a. Pointed end of pin should be placed under the fabric
b. Pins should be outside direction inside the stitching line
c. Use minimal number of pins, just placed on the corners of the pattern

CUTTING THE FABRIC

Tips in Cutting the Fabric

1. In cutting the fabric, it is best to use good shears with 7” or 8” blades.


2. Always cut with long even strokes, following exactly the cutting lines.
3. Use short strokes and the points of the shears when cutting short spaces
and in turning corners as shown by the pattern.
4. Cut the fabric flat on the cutting table which is free of any obstacles.
5. Use the other hand to hold the fabric in position while cutting some parts of
it.
6. In cutting folded fabric, place pins within to hold the two pieces firmly.
7. Do not place the pins on the cutting lines.

PINNING THE PATTERN PIECES


Use the following guidelines when pinning your pattern pieces to your fabric:
• Pin with care to prevent inaccurate cutting. A cutting error of ⅛ inch on each
side of a pattern piece can result in a ½ inch difference in the final garment.
• Use only enough pins to hold down the pattern securely. Depending on the
fabric and the size of the pattern piece, placing pins about six inches apart is
usually enough.
• Place pins completely inside the cutting line.
• Place pins diagonally in corners.
• Use pattern weights instead of pins to hold the pattern in position, if desired.
However, be sure to pin grainlines in place first. Position weights, inside the
cutting lines, on one pattern piece at a time.
