Sewing Vocabulary - Darn to Draping (BellaOnline)- Topic: quilting patterns

One of my sewing instructors years ago suggested sewing a slight curve along the seam which gives the dart a more subtle curve. Before I understood bodice fitting, I did not understand how to point the dart correctly so I frequently just put in a short gathered section on the side. Design ease Garment patterns all have a certain amount of ease to them that allows room for body movement (this is called wearing ease). Directional fabric This refers to fabric that has a one-way printed or woven design (or nap) that requires that all pattern pieces be laid in the same direction. Directional fabric frequently requires more fabric because you will not be able to rotate the patterns for the best fit. Often, pattern instructions will direct you to stay-stitch the neckline of a garment from the shoulder seam to the middle of the neckline.

(quilting patterns) Kids hone creativity, one stitch at a time (The Longview News-Journal)

A day camp in Longview sows the love of sewing into its students. Merredith Wright, 8, attends Kids Sewing Camp Thursday at Sharman’s Sewing Center. That information held the day campers’ attention as Blundell continued, telling them the skirts they would begin making that morning would each require slightly different cuts. Each girl — no boys signed up for camp this time, but it has happened — was measured at the waist, and the size written on each one’s name tag. Dorsey said she’s sponsored the day camp, which stretches into mid-August this year, for perhaps 20 of the 25 years she’s been in business.
