 Sewing
Pants and Skirts
Step-by-step
instructions show the professional cutting
and sewing techniques used by skilled sample
makers to produce high-end pants and skirts
like those sold in better department stores
and boutiques. These are industrial methods,
written in sequence, exactly as done in the
best designing departments. All instructions
are classroom tested.
Sewing Pants and Skirts contains 272
pages and is fully diagrammed, step-by-step.
Designed to be used both with and without
its companion book, Drafting & Fitting Pants
and Skirts.
Includes diagrams for preparing any straight
skirt and any basic pant pattern so they can
be used with the cutting and sewing
instructions in this book.
Sewing a Zipper

industrial zipper sets:
1. The lapped, hand-pricked zipper.
2. The invisible zipper - how to set with a
standard zipper foot.

4. The left-lapped fly zipper set. |

Mockup patterns, for
practice before setting the zippers into the
clothing, are included at the end of their
respective chapters.
Inset Pocket Diagrams
Detailed, step-by-step instructions are included for
sewing linings, inset pockets with tummy control, a

droop), a grosgrain backed skirt waistband, a
traditional, high-end pant waistband with a fly
front, and much more.
