GROUP 6- Level 1-6 Questions
TOPIC: Tucks, Gathers, Ease
Shirring
Level 1- Remembering
1. What are tucks, gathers, ease,
and shirring in sewing?
In sewing, tucks, gathers, ease, and
shirring are like magic tricks for fabric.
They allow you to add fullness, control
fit, and create different styles in your
projects.
Level 2- Understanding
1. How do easing and gathering
differ from each other in sewing?
Easing is like gently stretching or
shrinking fabric to fit a new size, while
gathering cinches excess fabric into a
smaller area using stitches, like creating
a pretty little puff.
Level 3- Applying
1. In one statement, generalize your
understanding about the lesson,” Tucks,
Gathers, Ease and Shirring”.
Tucks, gathers, ease, and shirring are
like a secret code for sewers. They allow
and you to transform fabric to achieve
different looks and functionalities in your
clothing creations.
Level 6- Creating
1. Imagine you're designing a
simple outfit. How would you use
tucks, gathers, ease, or shirring
to make it interesting and
comfortable? Draw or describe
your design and explain why you
made those choices.
Imagine a comfy jumpsuit with subtle
tucks near the shoulders for a touch of
detail. The waist would have a gently
gathered section to create a flattering
silhouette, and the sleeves would end in
shirred cuffs for a combination of style
and ease of movement. This design
uses these techniques to create a
garment that's both visually interesting
and comfortable to wear.

touch to how a garment looks and feels.
Level 3 - Applying
Question: Imagine you own a clothing
boutique. You notice some guys are shy
to try on clothes others might think are
"for girls." How can you make your shop
feel welcoming to everyone, regardless
of those stereotypes?
Answer: To make your shop a safe
space for everyone, you could display
clothes in a way that's not separated by
gender, offer help to all customers
without assuming what they like, and
show a variety of people wearing
different styles in your ads.
Level 4 - Analyzing
Question: How do gender stereotypes
affect clothes design? Do they reinforce
old ideas about gender roles, or can
they be challenged?
Answer: Gender stereotypes can limit
fabric choices (like only using soft
fabrics for women's clothes), color
palettes (think pink for girls, blue for
boys), and styles (dresses for girls,
pants for boys). But designers can also
break these stereotypes with creative
clothing that lets people express
themselves freely.
Level 5 - Generalizing
Question: Can you sum up what you
learned about gender stereotypes and
their impact?
Answer: Gender stereotypes are like
invisible walls that limit people and
create unfair advantages for some over
others. They can affect people's
choices, opportunities, and even their
feelings about themselves.
Level 6 - Creating
Question: Design a project to raise
awareness about the harm caused by
gender stereotypes in your community.
Answer: Let's create a series of
workshops where people can talk, see
art that challenges stereotypes, and
even have a fashion show celebrating
all kinds of gender expression! This
could help people understand each
other better, accept differences, and feel
empowered to be themselves.
