PATTERN LAYOUT AND ITS TYPE

WHAT IS PATTERN LAYOUT?

    The association of styles portions onto the laid lay supposed for slicing garment components is referred to as sample format or truely format. The placement of sample at the cloth, in a cheap manner, this is with out losing cloth is referred to as sample format.

What are the rules to be keep in mind for pattern layout.

ü Press the material earlier than laying it out at the desk.

ü A massive desk is beneficial for readily laying out all the pattern portions.

ü For an open format (in which single thickness of fabric is used) location the cloth with the right aspect up.

ü For all other layouts, fold the proper facets going through each different so that the incorrect side faces seamstress.

ü If a combination fold is used, lay and cut the lengthwise sample pieces first earlier than refolding the fabric for crosswise layout.

ü due to the fact maximum clothes are made with the lengthwise grain strolling vertically on the body, align the sample pieces on the cloth thus, with the grainline of pattern parallel to the selvage.

ü Pin all of the pattern portions to the cloth. Use only dressmaker’s pins as they do now not harm the cloth. Pins ought to be perpendicular to the sewing strains and the reducing line.

ü place big sample portions first and then suit inside the smaller ones.

ü Lay the portions as close to every other so that fabric isn't always wasted.

ü in shape sample portions which can be similar in shape next to every other. This technique is called dovetailing.

ü continually check out to peer if all of the sample pieces healthy into the material getting used.

ü Mark seam allowances at the fabric if the sample shows so.

ü If sample details are being transferred using a carbon paper, use a paper that is as near the color of the cloth as viable.

ü Mark sample info handiest on the incorrect facet of the fabric.

ü maintain the fold strains of patterns at the folded fringe of the fabric.

ü whilst using a lining material, mark simplest on the lining than at the actual cloth the garment is made.

ü try to fit the wide give up of one piece to the narrower give up of the alternative. Ex: petticoat format.

ü arrange all pattern portions earlier than reducing the cloth.

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF FOLD IN PATTERN LAYOUT?

There are seven types of fold in pattern layout. they are,

A.  Lengthwise fold

B.  Partial lengthwise fold

C.  Double lengthwise fold

D.  Cross-wise fold

E.  Partial cross-wise fold

F.  Combinational fold

G.  Open fold

 

A. LENGTH WISE FOLD

lengthwise fold

·      Lengthwise fold is made on lengthwise direction with selvedge matching along one edge.

·      This type of fold most frequently used and it is convenient easy to manage.

·      Sleeve pieces are mostly cut in this method.

B. PARTIAL LENGTH WISE FOLD

partial lengthwise fold

·      Partial lengthwise fold is made of length wise direction with one selvedge placed from a measured distance and from fold 8 balance of fabric is in single layer.

·      Width of the fold is determined by the width of the half pattern including the seam allowances. This type of fold is used when narrow pieces have to be cut on fold.

·      Mostly blouse pieces are cut in this method.

C. DOUBLE LENGTH WISE FOLD

double lengthwise fold

·      In double length wise fold, the selvedges meet on the centre.

·       When each back and front portions are to be reduce on a fold, This technique is used.

·       It is vital to preserve the space from every fold to selvedge.

D. CROSS-WISE FOLD

crosswise fold

·      Cross-wise fold is made on cross wise direction with selvedge match’s along two edges.

·      This type is generally used to the cross-wise fold would be used for full of fabric (or) to accommodate any unusually wide pattern pieces.

·      Mostly frock ,umbrella gown pattern are cut in this method

partial crosswise fold

E. PARTIAL CROSS-WISE FOLD

·      For a crosswise fold, fabric is usually folded so that cut ends match. However, a crosswise fold can also be a partial fold.

·      A crosswise fold is often used when pattern pieces are too wide to fit on fabric folded lengthwise.

F. COMBINATIONAL FOLD

·      In combinational fold, the fabric can be folded in two different way for the layout.

·      Normally two or more types of fold are laid together as any combination is possible.

·      Lengthwise fold or cross-wise fold may be combined; double length wise fold or double cross-wise fold may be combined.

H. OPEN LAYOUT

open layout

·      In open layout the fabric is not folded, the pattern is laid on the open width of the fabric.

·      This type of layout is used for design which require right left cuts have to be cut separately.

·      In most production open layout method is followed.
