Synopsis

Discover a practical system for sewing that centers on real measurements and a tape-line approach.

The book presents Mrs. S. C. Ewing’s method for cutting garments using actual measurements and a delineation of scales. It emphasizes accuracy, simplicity, and repeatable results, designed to fit a wide range of figures by relying on a few core measurements and five drafting pieces.


With clear guidance on drafting patterns for ladies, children, and even men's and boys’ garments, this edition aims to elevate sewing skill through hands‑on practice and tested methods. It also frames the work as a means to improve efficiency, reduce fitting trouble, and support dressmakers in their craft.




  • Learn the principle of drafting from actual measurements rather than charts alone

  • See how a tape-line and five pattern pieces shape front and back garments

  • Understand step‑by‑step drafting for waists, basques, and sleeves



Ideal for readers who want a practical, methodical approach to garment cutting and pattern drafting.
