The skillful use of the different sewing tools and equipment will help you take body measurement and draft pattern with accuracy and speed. Success in sewing, calls for the right tools at the right time. All tools must be appropriate, and one must know how to use them to save money, time and effort, and produce best result. This lesson will provide you knowledge and skills on the different tools and equipment which are necessary in sewing. What’s In Let us try to connect your stock knowledge about sewing which you probably learned during your primary years in school or at home and what you will learn more now that you are in your intermediate years. Below are the different tools in sewing which you may already be familiar with and some which are new to you. Measuring Tools Tape Measure- is a flexible measuring device usually marked with inches on one side and centimeters on the other used to take body measurements as well as any measuring task. Ruler- measures 12 inches or even 18 inches, either clear or solid. It is a useful tool to have for measuring and drawing straight seam lines and cutting lines. It also aids in connecting lines. A clear ruler is also a good tool for marking buttonholes. 4  Sewing Gauge- is a mall ruler with a sliding guide and is about six inches long. This gauge is used for measurements at hem lines, buttonholes and areas where other small measurements require checking, such as pleats and tucks. The gauge is usually made of metal or plastic. Yardstick- is a one-meter length made of smooth, shellacked hardwood or metal used for measuring cloth length, marking hemlines and checking grainlines when laying out patterns. L-square- is also known as tailor’s square, made of wood or aluminum and is calibrated on both sides used to make perpendicular lines and to break down measurements into 6ths, 8ths, 12ths, etc. Hip Curve- is also called curve stick made of wood or aluminum and is calibrated on both sides used to shape the hipline and other scissors that need to be curved. French Curve- is used to shape the depth of the neckline and armhole of the pattern. Cutting Tools Cutting tools are instruments that serve well if properly maintained. Sharp cutting tools make clean cuts and well-defined notches and they do not damage fabric. On the other hand, dull tools slow the cutting process, and make your hand and wrist tire easily. Sewing cutting tools should not be used for other household task. Cutting tools must be sharpened regularly and the joints are oiled occasionally for better use. Bent-handled dressmaker’s shears- These are made of quality steel and hold a sharp cutting edge. The blades move easily and cut smoothly along the entire length and the points should come together. Shears have the length of 7- 12 inches and are satisfactory for most apparel fabrics. Pinking Shears- This is popular in zigzagging or scalloped edge or for seam finishes. This is used to finish seams and raw edges and to create decorative edges on many types of fabric. It cuts a ravel-resistant edge. This is not satisfactory for straight cutting. 5  Scissors- may be plastic with steel blades or all metal; lighter than shears in weight used to cut pattern pieces, trimming and clipping threads. Thread Clippers- Thread clippers are a handy little spring-loaded cutting tool that allows for the snipping of threads. These clippers are specifically used to snip threads and they are not designed to cut fabric. Seam Ripper- Seam rippers are specifically designed for ripping out stitches from seams, either as a result of an error or during alterations. They should be used carefully to prevent damage to the fabric. Rotary Cutter and Mat- It is an adaptation of the giant rotary cutter used by the garment industry. It works like a pizza cutter and can be used by left or right-handed sewers. The rotary cutter is available in different sizes with different blades. When using a rotary cutter, work on a cutting mat to protect the blade and the cutting surface. Marking Tools Marking tools are required for transferring pattern markings to garment fabric pieces and for making alterations on garments. Chalk Pencils/Dressmaker’s pencil- This is available in white or pastel shades. This chalk pencil is used to make fine lines on fabric. It has an erasing brush at one end. Liquid Marking Pen- comes in two types. There is one that washes out and one that fades after 48 hours. Those that wash out should not be used on fabric that show water marks. The mark should be removed before pressing the fabric. Tailor’s Chalk- is a thin piece of hard chalk for marking the cloth. It is available in a range colors and is removed by brushing. Wax chalk- is used for woolen fabrics and can be removed by pressing. 6  Tracing Wheel- There are two types of tracing wheels, those with a serrated edge and those with a smooth edge. The serrated edge wheel produces dots on the fabric and is suitable for most types of fabrics. The smooth edge wheel is best for delicate fabrics and unlike the serrated edge will not pierce more delicate fabrics. The smooth edge wheel creates a solid line. Dressmaker’s Carbon Paper- is called dressmaker’s tracing paper, specially waxed carbon paper that transfers the tracing wheel’s markings to the fabric. A color of tracing paper should be chosen that is close to the color of the fabric. Different brands of tracing paper have different instructions; therefore, the instructions for the particular brand that is purchased should be followed. Pinning and Sewing Tools Pins- a short, slender piece of wire with a point on one end and a head on the other used to fasten pieces of pattern and fabric together Pincushion- a small cushion used to hold pins and needles Hand Needle- a small, slender, rod-like instrument with a sharp point on one end and an eye or hole for thread on the other used to pass thread through cloth to make stitches in sewing Needle Threader- usually a wire, bent into a diamond shape that is attached to a handle used to facilitate threading Thimble- a small hard pitted cup worn for protection on the finger that pushes the needle in sewing 7 Materials Fabric- is the cloth used in making garments. The plain cotton fabrics, flour sack or catch a is the most appropriate material for beginners because these are very easy to handle. Thread- a thin strand, cord or filament of natural or manufactured material used to join two or more pieces of fabric together Pattern paper- used in making patterns Show that you have learned something by doing this activity.
