Do you still recall the previous lesson about taking body measurements? Why is there

a need to take the body measurements before the start of the sewing activity?


Taking the accurate body measurements is important so that you can draft the correct

pattern for your best fit. Any wrong size can be a disaster in the fitted garment.


You are now ready to make your dress after taking the necessary body measurements.

The machine should be ready for use.


Make your sewing machine as your investment, whether you use it in the business or

just for family use. Performing routine maintenance tasks, and keeping your sewing

machine clean, can add years of life to it.


How to observe proper cleaning and handling of the sewing machine will be discussed

in this module.​
