This is done best when the lower part is laid close together, which will forma sweeping line, and show if one part or another is out of the regular shape. In laying the first side-body over on the front, as it would sew to it, bothseam lines must be alike. This holds good also when the second is laid on thefirst. Should they not lie perfectly even, equalize them by either adding to one ortaking off of the other. In cutting out this and similar patterns, lay a piece ofpaper under the first side-body and trace around it ; then lay another piece underthe second and trace that, then you have both intact, and the back and front canbe cut out whole, and no piecing will then be required. THE KEYSTONE SYSTEM FOR LADIES GARMENTS. 13. 9 5 DIAGRAM 4. U THE KEYSTONE SYSTEM FOR LADIES GARMENTS SACK JACKET. DIAGRAM 5. THIS diagram in the upper part is drafted in a similar manner to the while the foregoing has only two side-bodies, we here give one withthree. These are usual only on large sizes, yet when the material is of a hard sub-stance, it is much better to have an additional seam, and have the side-bodynarrower. The back is drafted like the last, so also the side seam from 5 to S and 2. But the line 7 and 8 is placed ^/^ inch forward, and that from 6 to 30 3^farther back, so as to space them equally. Then in the middle, between the two, draw the one 9-4. Curve slightly on each side to waist. On the hip line we must add 5 inches when the pattern measures only 16 andthe hip is 2 i. As we have 3 points at which to apply this surplus we have i^ for each line,or y^ of this on each side of 31-32 and 2)1 to draft the lines through. T
