HOW TO SEW A PENCIL SKIRT

UNIVERSITY OF PATTERN DRAFTING


LESSON 1; DRAFTING THE PENCIL SKIRT PATTERN
THIS TUTORIAL IS A TEENY-WEENY PART OF OUR ONLINE COURSE IN DRAFTING THE BASIC PATTERN SET WHICH INCLUDES OTHER TOPICS LIKE
- TAKING ACCURATE MEASUREMENT AND FREE MEASUREMENT CHART
- FRONT BODICE DRAFT
- BACK BODICE DRAFT
- SKIRT DRAFT (FRONT AND BACK)
- BASIC SLEEVE DRAFT (including armhole depth size chart)
- TROUSER DRAFT
COURSE FEE - 5000 Naira



MEASUREMENTS NEEDED

1. WAIST CIRCUMFRENCE; Measure the circumference of your body at your navel. This measurement should be taken with your abdomen relaxed.

2. HIP CIRCUMFRENCE; Measure the widest area of your hip with the tape rule parallel to the floor.

3. DESIRED LENGTH OF YOUR PENCIL SKIRT; Measure vertically from your navel to the point on your knee or calf where you want the skirt to stop.

NB; for this project our measurements include;
Waist circumference= 28inches
Hip circumference= 40 inches
Skirt length= 22 inches

CALCULATIONS REQUIRED TO DRAFT PATTERN

4. WAIST CIRCUMFRENCE /4
Using our above sample measurements, we should have 28/4 = 7inches
5. HIP CIRCUMFRENCE/4
We should have 40/4 = 10 Inches

EXPLANATION OF DIAGRAM

A-C = D-F = G-I = Desired length of skirt
A-D = D-G = B-E = E-H = C-F = F-I = (hip circumference/4) + ¼ inches ease
Dart placement for back pattern;
A-J = (waist circumference/4) + ¼ inches ease + 2 inches dart intake.
{using the sample measurement, we should have ; (28/4) + ¼ + 2
= 7+ ¼ + 2
= 9 ¼

A-K = Dart placement; this is the measurement of the centre back waist to the side princess line or the first leg of the dart.
{ using our ssample measurement, our dart placement would be 3 ½ inches.}

K-M = N-P = Dart intake : This is the distance between the two legs of the dart. Dart intake should be 1 inch.

L and O are the centre points of the darts. Thus, K-L = L-M = N-O = O-P = ½ inch


Length of dart for back pattern;
L-Q = 0- R = D-S = Length of dart for back pattern. The length of the dart for the back should be between 5 ½ to 6 inches depending on whether the person is petite, medium or large.
{ using our sample measurement, we shall use 5 ½ as the length of our back dart}.

Distance between the two darts at the back:
The distance between the two darts should be 1 ¼ to 1 ½ inches
Thus , M-N = 1 ¼ inches.

HIPLINE (BEH) ;
The hipline is horizontal line which is 7 inches away from the waist line (ADG).

Pencilling your skirt;
To pencil your skirt, use (hip circumference/4) – 1 ¼
{thus, using our sample measurement, the with of the base of our skirt should be ( 40/4) – 1 ¼
= 10 – 1 ¼
= 8 ¾ inches

Thus , measure and mark 8 ¾ inches rightwards from point C along the CFI horizontal line and name the point F^
Then , from point E measure and mark ¾ inches southwards along the DEF vertical line . connect this new point to point F^ using a slightly curved diagonal line.

PoliticsRe: Oshiomhole Blasts Obasanjo, Reveals What Ex-president Wants by pelicanbeau(f): 9:23am On Jul 21, 2018
11Ebiscoo:
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole has claimed that former President Olusegun Obasanjo is using other means to get the third term he failed to realize during his tenure.

Oshiomhole, speaking with State House correspondents after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Friday, stated that Nigerians had decided not to return to the era where the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) fund was shared to people based on the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)’s philosophy of “share the money.”

Answering question on the threat of mass defection from his party, Oshiomhole said: “I think it is something you should ask the PDP. They are the ones who have suffered huge, huge mass defection even of the so-called founding fathers. I mean, in those good old days, people like Prof. Jerry Gana will tell us, we are the founding fathers. People like President Obasanjo will tell us, you know I was the first President.

“All of these people are gone. I think the media need to get more engaged and scrutinize us, those of us who are political players. When we speak from both sides of the mouth or we are turning the story upside down.

“Just few months back, you know that a good section after their convention, people like Oyederan, Prof. Jerry Gana and a host of others who can be said to be founding fathers of that party, left to form what they call SDP or ADC or both. So, they broke out and then when it dawn on them that even together we defeated them just four years ago, and now further factionalised, what can they do.

“And they just want to capture power for the sake of power. So they say, even though we have already broken the house, can we for the sake of power come together. Does it make sense? In the morning, you broke away from PDP to SDP and then to ADC.

“And there is no better proof than that old man who is going round as an organising secretary recruiting people, looking for tired players to continue with a third term agenda which Nigerians had rejected.

“By whatever form they come in, Nigerians have spoken. They are not going to return to the era where Central Bank and NNPC security money is shared to people based on PDP philosophy ‘share the money’.

“We won’t do that, if they have forgotten. It is quite easy for robbers to forget easily the robbery they just did but it is not easy for the victim of the robbery to forget.”

Let's call a spade a spade, when we see a lady dressed like desperate marketers, displaying their bodies, we should call them Ashawo! We are minding our businesses because we have blood in our veins and 'unwanted' sexual harassments is our business. Pls COVER UP if you don't want to be called an ASHAWO!
