LESSON 150.
THE HIGH-STANDING COLLAR.
This collar begins the same as the ordinary standing collar. Draw a line from B to D, which is the full size of the collar, 14 inches, and allow 1 inch more for seams. E is half between B and D. Raise the line up from B to A, E to F and D to C; from B to A and from D to C is about 3 inches for the regular height; from B to H and D to I is 3/4 inch. Connect with round curve from H to E and from I to E; from A to K and from C to J is 1/2 inch. Draw straight lines from H to K up to P and the same from I to J up to R; from K to P and J to R is 1 inch in height. T is half of the space between A and F, and S is also half between F and C. Begin to make curves from PW to F, and from F up to V and lost at R. This completes the high-standing collar, with all seams allowed. This collar is used for shirt waists and dresses.
