Hello My Steemain Friends ,

How are you. I hope you people of steemian are good and enjoy your life . Well I am well. May God bless you all. Today I am writing about an interesting Steemit Engagement Challenge S20 - W1: which is all time my favourite topic “Introduction to pattern making| Class #1" this amazing challenge organised by @lunasilver . So, in this post I am going to share my point of view about this topic.

It is also important to take sewing lessons, because it helps a lot in everyday work. It is not necessary that we only stitch clothes. But if we know a little bit of work, then we can do small household chores. We can stitch some torn old clothes. During training in sewing, everything is taught on paper and we also get the clothes stitched on it, so that the cloth does not get damaged.

It is important to know first how we will take the measurements of the body for making the blouse, because if the measurements are correct then your blouse will fit perfectly and if the measurements are taken wrongly then it can be made of any size.

How do we take measurements for the blouse:

Chest circumference
Measurement from one shoulder to the other
Neck length
Sleeve measurement
Blouse length
Waist measurement
Skirt measurement
Skirt length
Waist measurement
Hips measurement
Girth measurement

The necessary measurements are also required for making individual blouses. It is as follows:

Blouse length
Sleeve length
Neck measurement
Curvature of sleeve

All these measurements are required.

For industrial size blouse, the following measurements are necessary;

"Blouse length measurement*

First of all, we measure the length of the blouse to know how much length we need to keep in the blouse.

Chest measurement

We take the map of the chest by rotating from front to back with the help of inch tape.

Shoulder measurement

We take the shoulder measurement from one shoulder to the other with the help of inch tape. Shoulder measurement is a very important measurement. Because if your shoulder measurement is small or big, then the fitting of the blouse is not good, its shoulder starts falling on the sleeve.

Waist measurement

Waist measurement shows the width of the waist of the blouse. The map of the waist is taken by lapping around the waist with an inch tape.

Measurement of sleeves

From the shoulder we measure the length of the sleeves to find out how much sleeves we need. Full sleeve or half sleeve or one third.

Measurement and size of neck

First of all we measure the length of the neck at the back. Then we measure the length of the front neck of the blouse. After that, according to the type of neck design to be made in the blouse, we also see whether the length we have measured is correct.

The essential materials we need for taking measurements are as follows:

Inch tape
Pencil
Scale

With the inch tape we take the measurement of the body shape and in the copy in which we write, we write the name of any customer and record his measurement with the help of a pencil and scale.It is very important to keep a record so that you can take out the record of that person and stitch his clothes whenever you want.

My only reason for doing this course is that when I got my BA education, I also took sewing lessons along with it. At that time I used to stitch my suit blouses at home myself. But after marriage, responsibilities increased and I had to sit at the shop with my husband, so I did not get time for all these things and never felt the need. Because everyone in our house gets their clothes stitched from a tailor.

So my only reason for doing this course is that I wanted to see whether I still remember that cutting and drafting or not. When I did that drafting, I felt very good. But since I have learned sewing, I can do small work at home very easily, I do not have any problem.

I want to invite my friends to take part in this contest: , @suboohi, @goodybest , @eliany , @anasuleidy"

Thankyou 🙏
