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.
Front skirt length 20 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.
2. What length of material do you need for the jacket sleeves?
A. 21 in.
B. 36 in.
C. 27 in.
D. 54 in.
3. The fabric label doesn't say if the linen was preshrunk. You test the fabric for shrinkage and determine it needs to be shrunk. How do you do this?
A. Wash the material in cold water and dry on high in dryer.
B. Immerse the material in hot water and drip dry.
C. Wash the material in hot water and dry on high in dryer.
D. Immerse the material in warm water and drip dry.
4. Which shaping technique will add shape to a bodice?
A. Darts
B. Pleats
C. Gathers
D. Tucks
5. A client tries on a skirt. You check the side seams. They curve towards the back. What does this indicate?
A. The skirt front is too tight.
B. The skirt front is too loose.
C. The skirt back is too tight.
D. The skirt back is too loose.
2. How long are the sleeves supposed to be to fit the customer?
3. Probably D, although this won't shrink the material very much.
4. A
5. C
2 is A
1. To determine the length of material needed for the dress portion of the outfit, you need to add the jacket back length, front skirt length, and full back length.
Given measurements:
Jacket back length: 15 in.
Front skirt length: 20 in.
Full back length: 41 in.
Total length needed = Jacket back length + Front skirt length + Full back length
Total length needed = 15 in + 20 in + 41 in = 76 in
So, you would need to purchase 76 inches of material for the dress portion of the outfit. However, since the fabric comes in a 36-inch width, you would need to purchase at least double the width, which is 72 inches. The closest option in the given choices is 70 inches (option C).
Answer: C. 70 in.
2. To determine the length of material needed for the jacket sleeves, you need to consider the length of each sleeve. However, the given measurements do not provide the length of the sleeves. It is not possible to answer this question without additional information.
3. To test the fabric for shrinkage, you need to follow the correct procedure. The options are as follows:
A. Wash the material in cold water and dry on high in the dryer.
B. Immerse the material in hot water and drip dry.
C. Wash the material in hot water and dry on high in the dryer.
D. Immerse the material in warm water and drip dry.
To properly determine shrinkage, it is recommended to wash the material in hot water (option C) and then dry it on high in the dryer. This will simulate the maximum amount of shrinkage the fabric may undergo.
Answer: C. Wash the material in hot water and dry on high in the dryer.
4. The shaping technique that adds shape to a bodice is called darts. Darts are small folds sewn into fabric to create shape and contour.
Answer: A. Darts.
5. When checking the side seams of a skirt and noticing that they curve towards the back, it indicates that the skirt back is too tight. The curves in the side seams suggest that there is excess fabric at the back, causing it to pull and create the curved seam line.
Answer: C. The skirt back is too tight.
