How to Draft the Back-Shonlder-Line* [See Diagram 11.] Rule 19.—Place the Back-Neck-point of the Guide exactly atand touching the Back-Neck-dot on the Goods, at the same timehaving the Shoulder-edge of the Guide (near the lower end) restingon the top of Arm-curve, at figure 13; and, while the Guide is inthis position, draw a line from the Back-Neck-point to the figure 7,(printed on the Shoulder of the Guide), denoting the length. How to Re-Shape the Back Arm-CuTTe. [See Diagram 11.] Rule 20.—Place the Arm-point of the Guide exactly at andtouching the Arm-point on the Goods, at the same time having theupper part of Arm-curve placed at the end of the [28] (indicated in Diagram 11 by figure 7;) then draw a line from theend of Shoulder to the Arm-point (as shown in Diagram 11). How to Shape the Side-Form of the Back-Waist. Rule 21.—Place the Side-form-Rule of the Guide in the sameposition on the Goods as shown in Diagram 11; viz: First make adot at the Waist-line (on the Goods) half-an-inch from the center ofBack; also, make a dot on the Arm-curve, a little below half-way;then place the upper edge of the Side-form-Rule close to these dots,and draw a line from the Arm-curve to the Waist, (using the upperor most rounded edge for this purpose). Explanation.—The shape of the Curve can be varied, more orless, as the difference in forms and change in fashion may require. Diagram U.—This represents the Back of Dress-Waist in itsfinished condition, showing the re-shaping of the Arm-curve, theshape and position of the Side-form, lines for Seams, etc. This completes the Back of Dress- Waist. ixissozu
