II. Background Information for Learners

In choosing the designs for the children’s dress, there are special sewing
hints that we must always remember.

Special sewing hints for children’s dress

1. For durability, substitute machine for hand stitches wherever it is practical and not
unsightly to do so baste down facings.
2. For extra strength, stitch areas of strain, such as armholes, twice.
3. For ease in handling really small garments, attach the sleeves before closing the
underarm seam.
4. For ease of care, choose fabric that are washable; also check the care requirements of
white or pastel colors. Although cottons and synthetic blends are usually the first
choices for children’s garments, washable wools are also suitable.
5. To please the child, pick bright colors and lively prints. Large designs can be
overwhelming.
6. For convenience, always provide a pocket or two. Children like places to keep small
possessions.
7. A good safety precaution is to have reflective tape strips to outer garments, especially if
they are dark in color.
8. To make handed-down garment different for the younger brother or sister, add a special
appliqué, pockets or monogram. Also consider changing the garment style; could a
dress with sleeves be made into a pinafore for the new owner?
