Base the answers to Questions 1–3 on the following information:
Ms. Troy would like you to make a copy of an outfit that she owns and really likes—a sleeveless dress with a short-sleeve jacket. She has selected a lilac linen fabric that comes in 36-in. width. You make a pattern for the dress and record the following measurements:
Jacket back length 15 in.

Full back length 41 in.
1. What length of material do you need to purchase for the dress portion of the outfit?
A. 82 in.
B. 41 in.
C. 70 in.
D. 91 in.
1. To determine the length of material needed for the dress portion of the outfit, we need to add up the different measurements mentioned in the question. The jacket back length is 15 in., the front skirt length is 20 in., and the full back length is 41 in. Add these three measurements together: 15 + 20 + 41 = 76 in. Therefore, the correct answer is not listed, but it should be 76 in.
2. The question asks for the length of material needed for the jacket sleeves. However, the measurements for the jacket sleeves are not provided. Therefore, we cannot determine the correct answer from the given information.
3. To test the fabric for shrinkage, you would typically wash a small piece of the material in water and observe if it shrinks. However, the options provided in the question do not reflect this process correctly, as they include drying methods. Therefore, the correct answer is not listed, but it should be washing the material in water and observing if it shrinks.
4. To add shape to a bodice, the appropriate technique is using darts. Therefore, the correct answer is A. Darts.
5. If the side seams of a skirt curve towards the back when the client tries it on, it indicates that the skirt back is too tight. Therefore, the correct answer is C. The skirt back is too tight.
6. When attaching a flat 1/2-in. button, the size of the buttonhole should typically be slightly larger than the button itself. Therefore, the correct answer is B. 5/8 in.
7. If the fabric frays easily, the best buttonhole option would be a machine-stitched worked buttonhole. Therefore, the correct answer is C. Machine-stitched worked buttonhole.
8. To reduce heavy strain on a button attached to a man's overcoat, reinforcing the button with silk thread would be the best option. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Silk thread.
9. Alterations should ideally be made on the pattern pieces before sewing a garment. Therefore, the correct answer is B. On the pattern pieces.
10. Fabrics that have difficulty pleating well are typically those that do not hold pleats easily. From the options provided, jersey fabric would most likely have difficulty pleating well. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Jersey.
Based on the given information, it seems that question 2 and question 3 do not have correct answer options. Please note that the correct answers provided above are based on the information provided in the question and may not reflect the actual correct answers if additional information is missing or if there are errors in the question itself.
